OK. Tried lot's off different things.

20' of antenna wire.
Radio grounded.
No fluorescent lights.
No battery chargers.

To be even more certain, I took the radio outdoors.

Only the faintest reception of a local boomer. Connected antenna directly to the grid cap of the 6A7, and also through a 30pf cap. No significant difference.

This is exactly why I put the radio aside last time. I'm not giving up till it's fixed! Going to go through the wiring again lead by lead, and recheck values.
