GE List.  I just finished aligning my 17 and was having AVC problems.
During the alignment I had found a 6AK6 sub'ed for a 6BA6 in V11.  I put a
6BA6 in because I could not find any wiring changes below the chasis.  After
the alignment the I started having AVC problems.  I replaced the 6BA6 with
the 6AK6 I had removed - this cured the problem.  I have heard of the 17
having AVC problems and mine were pretty bad.  I hope this helps someone
with a 17 with the same problems.  The previous owner probably long passed
had found the cure for the problem.
