Arran....the volume control tab was not grounded. You lead me right too the fix, thank you. Now I need to find out why the osc is not oscillating. Touching the top cap of the 6a7 does nothing. Placed transistor radio close to the osc coil of the 620, then ran the variable condenser on the 620 full up then full down and I got no signal indication on the transistor radio. It's the same on all three bands, no osc. I've got a few hours free tomorrow that's dedicated to looking into this. Thanks again for your assistance.
