Replacing the 10K anode-feed resistor with one that actually measured 10K rather than 18K like the original brought things back to life! After that, I replaced quite a few more resistors (screen-feeds, anode decouplers) and the sensitivity improved significantly. "Steady Eddy" is now my bedside radio - ideal for a bit of nighttime tuning-around when insomnia strikes! |
