Philco 84 Problem
#1

I have a Philco 84 that I have re-capped and have either checked or replaced all of the bad resistors. Things were going reasonably well during alignment. I was picking up three separate stations, one on each end of the dial and one in the middle. Then for some unexplained reason things changed.
First, the only time the radio would receive is when the volume was turned completely up. There is no sound that comes out of the speaker unless this is done. This is a new problem that I can't seem to isolate. Furthermore I have no selectivity in the tuning, I get one strong station all across the dial and no others. Any Help would be appreciated.
