Hey gang,

finally got this project out and re-started working on it. It came out of my grandmothers house, 1930's sears silvertone 101.566--D. When I first check it out  it had very low volume....barely audible unless I hooked it to a longwire antenna, but tuned ok.

It has since been recapped, new resistors, power cord, tubes and im working a little on the cabinet too.

I have checked the speaker, volume control, tubes, with tester and by changing them as well, tuner coils, rf coil have continuity, I have not done a formal alignment but have turned the IF adjustment screws slightly with no improvement.  

It tunes to local stations just fine, but the low volume is unchanged, I need some guidance on what to look at next.
