[Boatanchors] Mohawk Question

Folks,

The Mohawk I picked up on eBay appears to have a unique problem...  too much
sensitivity.  If I turn the RF and IF gain all the way, the S-meter pegs and
it appears to overload.  I suspected a problem in the AGC/AVC circuit (i.e.
a bad tube holding AVC voltage down).  All tubes test OK.  I did notice that
it is impossible to zero the S-meter (bad tube or component out of range).

Any ideas before I tear into it?

Thanks.
