Yeah most of the stuff we fool with here is from late 1920's thru the early 50's Well everything looks OK. The antenna on this set is on the back cover. Sometimes wires come loose from it. Double the connections there. You can try wiggling the tubes a bit to see if you have a bad connect there. Short of that that's going to be about it without using some test gear to doing some troubleshooting.
