I checked connections, added a power cord and fired the 285 up yesterday. Got glow on all tubes. Dial lights work. Got some weak reception at first, but by the time I reached for a screw driver to tweek the alignment screws, she went quiet. Get chiffs when I change bands. something is not oscillating. When it was working, tone and volume worked smoothly. I don't think the problem is drastic.
