Now this thread has me curious because I had an old Westinghouse AM/FM Radio from 1948 or so a Model H-1821 (H-182 in the Riders) that used all miniature tubes, and in that radio both the AM and FM bands were "dead" (it wouldn't pick up any stations no matter what kind of antenna you used) and I fully recapped the radio, replaced all "out of tolerance" resistors, and replaced any tubes that tested questionable on my tube tester (mainly the 12AT7 and the 19T8 which both tubes are notorious for failing in this particular circuit setup) and I still had no stations being picked up on the radio on both the AM and FM band so I basically just gave up on that radio, but this thread might give me some ideas as to what I should look out for in the future if I run into another Westinghouse radio.
