You may want to measure the resistance from the unground side of the resistor to the cathode pin of the mixer tube. This will tell you if you will need to rewind the feedback section of the osc  coil.
To check ant coil unplug set turn on with the volume control all the way up (loudest). Measure resistance from the ANT post to gnd post. Both osc and ant coil should read 10 ohms of less. If higher it's time to break out the magnet wire.
