Back from my road trips and figured I should finish this up. Dug out the grid leak resistor. It measured 4.6 meg rather than the 4 meg it is supposed to. I added a parallel 4.7 meg resistor bringing it down to about 2.3 meg. This did seem to improve the sensitivity.

There are a couple of other performance mods that John dug up that I will try before putting this one to bed.
