Stromberg Carlson 430m tunning eye?
#1

I have a Stromberg Carlson 430m I've recapped, and replaced all resistors that were out of spec. finaly got a replacement for the 6AF6 eye tube which was bad. Here is the schematic   
http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByModel...021539.pdf

The radio plays fine but the eye doesn't operate when tuned to a strong station, I retested and it shows the open and closed position just fine on the tester. 
The voltage test I think has a misprint here is what I have
     printed                actual
 nc   1   90                  0 not used
 H   2   ----               -------
 G   3   ----               121
 G   4  220               147
 P   5  110               237
 x   6   52                   -----
 H  7  6.5                  6.3
 K    ----                   100 
1&6 are not used but the print shows 90v on pin 1 and 52v on 6

What I'm I missing?
