I will do that measurement that you suggest. I re-tested and substituted all the tubes and replaced every bypass cap except one that is in the XX tube area where it is a very tight area to work. The radio makes no sound other than a very quiet hum that you can hear only if you put your ear up to the speaker. It was playing perfectly clear and loud before it just quit on me.
