42-PT-93 Please Help
#43

This is weird. I fixed the cadohm resistor and the loud hum went away. Put the antenna loop on the right tabs. Cleaned and tightened the tube sockets. Changed out the tubes. Adjusted the antenna trimmer. Still nothing but some light static. Even now when I touch the center tab of the volume control, the radio picks up one station, faintly, no matter where the dial is set. Is it possible the tuning condenser is bad?
