Decided to do a second voltage check to be sure I wasnt missing anything. This time as I went through the check I touched the VM probe to pin 2 of the 1st 24 tube and the radio roared to life! The erie part of it was that blasted a radio station that only plays old music. The volume control was turned down and the sound was BLASTING out of that old dameged speaker(which faired pretty well). Crystal clear too. No static. When I took the porbe off the pin the set went silent again. Touch it again and it came back on. Try to tune another station and it goes dead. Incidentally that tube is now reading 80 volts on the plate. Maybe its possessed. Icon_wtf
