OK, major problem now.
After working well for about an hour, a full volume growl started and is constant on all bands and phono. The volume control does not affect it, the tone control makes a slight change. I pulled out the 1st audio/2nd detector 7c6 tube and the horrible sound is still there, so I suspect it's somewhere in the audio section.
I'm going to get out the o-scope and see if I can find anything, but I'm also hoping someone has an idea of what might have gone bad here.
