It sounds like someone took some liberties with your radio.

Pin 4 of the 77 is the suppressor grid and should connect to ground.

Pin 5 of the 77 is the cathode and should connect to the top of the oscillator tickler coil per the schematic.

If I were you, I would change the wiring to correspond with the schematic.
