Speaking of neutralizing, I have a bad 26 tube that I removed one filament pin and when I pull one of the RF tube and plug in the
dead dummy tube, my test signal drops to almost nothing so I'm not sure I'm doing it right. Also, WLS Chicago comes in pretty
good and loud but the volume control has no effect on the loudness. It seems odd to control the audio level at the front end of the
receiver by adjusting the antenna signal into the antenna transformer. unless,,the antenna transformer has an open winding, I'll have
to check that out.
