Thanks Dave, I thought I had the diode oriented correctly, but maybe it was reversed - it's gotta be something dumb like that. I'll pick up a new diode tonight and try again.
Still wondering about the weak FM though; I swapped the 12DT8 tube with one from another radio I have and no change, though it was temporarily louder when I swapped the original back in. Heard a pop over the speaker and the volume lowered, and it went up and down a few times with a speaker pop each time, so now I figure it's something loose or shorting; or could a bad resistor or cap do that?
