Hi Hugh and welcome to the Phorum,
> Anyone have some good advice on how to clean tube sockets?
Deoxit works well for me, just make sure that it is dry out before powering the set up.
>Tomorrow I'll get out the scope and see if I can figure out if the oscillator is working properly
You can listen to it in another receiver tuned to the same frequency + the IF frequency. You can use a transistor set placed near the osc tube.
Glad to have you aboard!
