Hi everyone! I hope everyone is well and staying safe.
I have a problem that I have never run into before. Although it does sound like I've said that before. Anyway, I replaced all the caps, checked and replaced any resistors over 20% out. All the tubes check good and it has been aligned. Here's my problem: with the original loop antenna (it has continuity) the only thing I can pick up is my SStran, about 8 feet away. If I connect my long wire to the antenna connector it sounds great and picks up all local stations.
Any ideas where to look?
Thanks,
