I decided I needed to pull the speaker out of the cabinet for further testing. Fortunately, I managed to do this without damaging my antenna. I now have it on my bench attached to the radio minus the antenna. I then discovered that I've got a 7G7 tube installed where I should have a 7B7 tube. Is the 7G7 a proper substitute or could this be my problem? I also just noticed that the nut is missing on an IF can (visible in above photo) so someone been in there before
Thanks,
Keith
