Emerson 415 radio low volume.

[fumplet]

This is my first radio with the resistance line cord. Ended up using a 10 uf run capacitor for the tube filaments. variac is set to 114 volts which gets me 6.3 on the filaments, so I need to install a resistor as well later.
On full volume the radio is low, very low. Schematic or instructions really dont say how long the antenna cord was. Since this wasnt a totally complete radio, I didnt get the back cover or any possable tube shields. Having a hard time even finding a picture of what a restored or unmolested chassis looks like. All caps replaced as well as every single oddball looking resistor, yes all of the resistors were bad. Havnt tested the tubes or checked voltages yet other than the 6.3 filament voltages. This chassis is really rusted it could even be a ground lug as well. speaker is repaired wire broke it rattles but works. Antenna wire is 6 feet long, which might be too short.
