Ron,

Thanks

I checked the caps and all looks fine, all resistors are original ( Might be a good idea to replace them ? ). Unfortunately I don't have a tube tester, as I said before they all glow. Is there a basic check I can make without a tester ? Wish the hardware store I remember as a child was still around, they all had testers..... Icon_sad

Since I'm new at this, how can I check the oscillator and antenna coil ?

Kurt
