Hey Greg-
When I got it, it was completely untouched, no speaker, and powered up. My FC and output trans were both open so I got a new 8ohm speaker with a Hammond universal output trans, with an 1800Ohm resistor, and increased cap (40uF). I just got done rebuilding the set. When I powered it up no sound came at all. I noticed when probing around though, that when I touch any rectifier connection and the cap of either 77, the speaker makes a loud buzzing sound, which I am taking as good news of the sound section, although I'm not completely sure. I also have a 15 ft antenna attached. Absolutely no sound at all as is. Any suggestions?
