It may have worked if you would have just cut one lead of the RF bypass
capacitor to remove the short. 73 - Mike

Here's the report:

9:00 Arrive at site and start setting up set.

9:45 Antenna up, receiving signals on receiver, make test transmission on
3885 AM to local receiver.

10:00 Receiver quits, voltages show OK.  Clean T/R switch, tuning cap,
bandswitch.  No joy.  Voltage checks show no plate voltage on detector tube.
RF bypass on plate determined to be shorted.  No spare, end of exercise.

 

Thanks for tuning in.
