Let me know-

Hi Nolan, that would be very helpful, thank you for the offer. I am looking forward to seeing the pics.

I would then check voltages but you will need an isolation transfomer to do it safely.
If there is no AM or FM it sounds like an audio stage problem.
If there is AM but not FM there is probably a bad convertor tube for FM or a bad IF can. I would check all the tubes if possible to rule out tube related problems.

Hi Chad, I will do the AM radio test and see if I can get that whistling sound. I have an isolation transformer so I will do some voltage readings too. I will also check all the tubes. Prolly won't get to it until Wednesday when the kids are in school.

Thanks to you both. Loren
