OK, after realizing the Sams photo was in fact incorrect as I suspected, I have put the wires back as they were per the schematic. I have checked the wiring multiple times. I still don't get any stations or static, just a faint background noise similar to an amp that's on and working just waiting for a signal to be put through it. I put a 3rd 7A8 tube to check it. Same thing. I did buy a sig gen Eico 324 on eBay today, and hopefully, this will finally pinpoint the problem.
