The understanding of the power supply sheds new light and the fact the +20v is spot on and the -6.3v is a bit low to me is not yet a red warning.
Let's review the symtoms again:
"...Have a very low power clean 12.5MHz sine wave. The frequency doesn't change whatever I do to the wheel and the output level has no effect on the amplitude. The meter still doesn't move into the readable zone..."
To me this again is pointing to the output hybrid amplifier. I think we should step back and reflect how to confirm this.

Well...if +22VDC is still considered spot on then we're good!!!!!
