Hello folks,
I am most grateful for all the suggestions you have been putting forth.
As Les has divined, I am rather busy at present - so I can't do much till 
the weekend.
Some clarification seems to be required. This is a bog-standard BC-454-B. 
All the tubes are warm. All the base Voltages are what I would expect. I did 
feed signals to pin 4 of the IF amplifier tubes, 12SK7s.
As all the IFTs peak up, then the trimmer caps are OK, as I suspect are the 
coils in the IFTs. I have yet to remove the cover over the variable tuning 
capacitor. But as the padders and trimmers there all have the required 
effect, I don't think the problem is there.
I hope to do some serious signal injection - but over the weekend.
In the meantime, keep your suggestions flowing.
73 de Brian, VK2GCE.

Hello All
I had an (off-group) reply from Brian a few days ago.
I intended ringing him; but it seems (from what he said privately) -
he's up to his ears with work and other private matters at the moment.
  Sometimes life gets so busy that radio drops into the background.
