Philco model 77 am radio.
#1

I was wondering if anyone can give my some insight. I picked up a Philco model 77 low boy. 
I have changed all the condenser in the radio. Also picked up a spare set of tubes.
The audio portion of the radio works fine but it will not recieve any stations. In the lower range on the tuning dial, the radio sound is that of a 60 hr low hum. 
I tried to touch the top of the 24 tubes with an antenna wire and I either get a static noise or a wob wob wob noise from the speakers. Does anyone have ant thoughts on were the problem area may be.
Thanks in advance for any advice. It is much appreciated.  Icon_razz
