Philco 38-9 console - capacitor questions
#10

Thanks to all that have helped, I appreciate it. After replacing all of the rest of the wax capacitors the radio now motorboats and whistles all across the dial. The tube shields are on and I've checked over my work and didn't find any errant blobs of solder or crossed wires. Not sure if it matters but this radio did not have any tube shields and I don't have any (can't find them...) of the square Philco one's that are supposed to be on this chassis. I had several round ones laying around so I bent them to fit - and they do shield the tubes, fitting nicely around the square bases of them. Any thoughts on how to proceed?
