The tubes I swapped are from a working radio, that's all I can tell you. That radio has new electro caps, but needs the others recapped. It doesn't pull in a ton but several stations came in pretty clearly. So, not 100% sure of every one being 100%.

I'm suspecting some wiring issues comparing the schematic to what I'm seeing.

The green wire from A5 side shows it going to pin 4 of 7A8 and mine's going to pin 6.

The white wire from A6 side shows it going to pin 6 of 7A8 and mine's going to the osc coil.

The other white wire attached to the center post in pic is connected to pin 5 of 50A5. I don't see this on schematic unless I'm reading it wrong.
