Just converted a 54C using Ron's instructions. Radio plays really well when I touch the metal 12SQ7. But as soon as I take my finger off of it, the sound is garbled. I checked all the solder joints, the socket itself, and tried another tube. I also grounded pin 1. Still garbled unless I touch the tube. Any ideas?
