Tube Testing - 46-200
#2

The first thing I would do is make sure both leads of the built-in loop antenna are connected as they should be. This set needs its built-in loop; it's part of the radio's antenna circuit.

When you say the seller "added a long lead wire for the antenna," it makes me wonder if he or she removed or disconnected the loop?

The loop should be glued to the inside of the cabinet.

If one wire of the loop is disconnected, it will cause the radio to sound garbled as you described.
