Thought I'd throw this out there to see if anyone has any ideas on any component I may have missed after the recap that could be causing me to have weak, noisy reception above 1000 on the dial. The local station in town at 1470 should be blaring and it isn't (weak and noisy like a distant station would sound), yet the other end at 620 out of Milwaukee (35 miles away) is strong and clear and loud.

It seems to be around the #58 IF tube. When I try to align the set, I just barely touch the A8 and A9 trimmers on the IF can for the tube and the set begins to squeal. If I put my finger on the grid cap of the #58 IF tube, the station goes silent. It's very sensitive / finicky around that can and that tube

I haven't checked voltages yet but just wanted to see if there's something obvious that I overlooked that could be the culprit.
