I think I found what the problem was...a small wire wound resistor buried under a paper cap I missed that was open. #14 and #15 on the schematic. It’s playing now with the antenna wire clipped on to the chassis as it should be. The Antenna clip on the chassis is also responsive when you touch it. So I think I can rule out an open antenna coil, which is good! With the new transformer installed it draws about 3 to 4 AC amps at 120 volts, which is a bit concerning. There was no draw on the transformer without a load. No leakage either. Everything checked good on the new transformer. I'm wondering if a bit of a draw is normal for an 11 tube set? Never tackled one with that kind of population before!
