Sorry guys no time this week to work on the radio. But here is the status. The 80 tube pin-pin was over 470. But, given that I moved the radio back and forth to my parents and that it currently is not working I'm planning on checking all voltages again.

Also, I still have not verified that the signal generator is working. The light comes on but there is no 'Hum' or sound of any kind while hooked up.

That being said, while it was hooked up and I made tuning adjustments (prior to this current voltage issue) I was able to see the multimeter rise to the highest voltage point (at each of the tuning stages) AND the actual static or 'sound' coming from the radio itself was increasing...I guess what I'm saying is it seems to me that the sig generator is more of a guide at this point. On the other hand, the set isn't working now so maybe I'm way off.

About the antenna, it wasn't until I repaired the internal coil (I have a pic I should post!) that I was able to get a station. I've since added an external wire (it's thin, same gauge as the coil wire, 30?? I think?) and it's about 3-4 feet long. But it's not a loop or a cross its just a 4 ft wire. Will that antenna work?

I'll do some checking to see where my voltage issue is and then report back.
