Philco 46-1209 Code 121
#30

Chase
I don't see unusual about those voltages they are not likely to be right on. As for the reception is the antenna correct? Are there any local stations to hear? (Where I live there are no local stations so all the radios I work on sound weak. I have to wait for night time.) If the antenna is correct I would look into the coils L1 and L2. Check their resistances. Sometimes they can open up.
You should be able to measure L2 in circuit and L1 you can measure if you disconnect the antenna.

If the coils check good then I would try an alignment.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
