Thanks for the schematic, Ron. That is a very similar approach to what I was thinking. The only real difference is that I was planning to control the gain of the RF and the IF tubes with the avc. My idea was to create a separate avc buss and detector only for the gain control and continue to use the plate detector for the audio demod and driver. Who knows, maybe it won't work out, but it would be interesting to try it. I agree, it would make sense to swap out the 24's with 35's, at least in the RF and IF stages.
