It makes nooooo sense!
#1

I am working on another Tradio right now and I am having issues.

It is finished electronically and plays great Buuuuuuut when I put it back in the cabinet it loses reception. The cabinet is the antenna and the chassis has to be floating from the cabinet. If I play with the 35L6 it gets reception but then loses it. I move it back and forth and it come in and goes out. I have cleaned the pins and the socket but it is not helping. If I get it in the right position it will stay on. Then when I go and close the back it loses reception every time. Why is closing the back making a radios volume disappear?

What the hocke stix is going wrong? Tube is good so I don't know what to do!

And suggestions?
