Yeah, I was being kinda lazy and rather anxious to get her up and running, so didn’t dig into to tone control. Will do those caps next. After rooting around in my tube stash, I found 8 6A7’s and 3 39/44’s, so will start sequentially subbing them and see what I get. I seem to be getting strong signals from a local AM station that I’d think would be enough to generate sufficient plate current, but who knows? The fun continues…
