Finished all resistors but one, it measured right on. All caps done and brought it up on the variac. Volume level, not bad but won't rock the house. Seems still a little distorted at higher volumes, not as bad as when I first tested it upon receipt. All tubes test below 50% on my Precision 912. The worse are the 45s at 8 and 10%. It is the slight distortion that is bothering me. Worse, those that can hear (high frequencies elude me) hold their hands over their ears and say "can't you hear that high squeal". Well no.
Any ideas out there? Something oscillating? Tube shield is in place.

Thanks for your ideas. Jerry
