I did find the 9K resistor #57 was bad reading 37 K I replaced it with a 10K
I checked #23 it was reading 23k it should be 20k the only resistor I have to replace it with is 22k so I left it in, #22 that read 52k and spec is 51k so I left that one in too.
The pilot light is now working, I also found a ground issue so thumping is gone.
There is sound when touching all 3 grid caps but no stations.
6A8 pin 4 is 63V should be 90V and 6K8G pin 4 is 63V should be 90V Where should I look for this problem?
What is the correct antenna set up for a indoor antenna to listen to Broadcast?
Thanks for all the help so far. Ralph
