Model 14 Sensitivity
#1

Now that my model 14 chassis is up and running and aligned as best I know how,  I've been enjoying Searching the BC band for program material.  I have noticed that the low end of the the band is noticeably less sensitive than the upper end of the band.  Is this an antenna issue or are there adjustments that will help?  I've not been able to test tubes or substitute others as yet. Could it be a tube issue?

Thanks to all of you gurus for your past help.  Been having fun with this new "hobby".  I've also been playing with a 1941 Majestic 3C70 and have it working quite good.  I need to do some alignment on it but as of right now, it is far more sensitive on the low end than the 14.
