Replaced the 6L6 with the correct 6F6and it seems to play as well as it did with the 6L6.
However....found that the 1st audio had been changed from a 6K5 to a 6R7, and that set wouldn't play with a 6K5 in place. Put the 6R7 back in and it played like a champ. This radio had a very good recap in the not too distant past (before me) and even the 6k5 socket doesn't appear to have had the wiring changed.

Could this have been a factory modification ?
