Ok.. So radio did not Oscillate.. I put the original tubes back in and radio started to work again..Then on to my Volume problem  

I checked the Volume control and all the parts that connected to it..All were OK.. But this is what I found  Resistor 24 a 51K had came loose on one side  Not a great solder job by me.. I re-soldered the resistor and Guess what The Volume works.. All the way up.. Also the Radio now receives the lower end of band great..

Lesson:  Make sure I solder correctly and check connections after soldering..

I will do alignment over again just to make sure..

But seems all is well now..
