I also suspect that one of the tubes is questionable. When you phirst turn it on, it sounds phine, but as time goes on, the static starts to creep through more and more. When I phixed my Philco 42-327 back in September, the sound would come in crystal clear, but minutes later, it would completely phade out. I replaced the audio output tube, and it phixed the problem.
