New Problem now that I can hear it, the amp plays like it is a 2 watt amp. I know it's louder than this. I am wondering if the place where I pulled the signal was the right place? Or V1 tube is pulling a lot of current for some reason (191V node with 100kR and 11V on the plate means 180V drop = 1.8mA). I swapped it but no change. I wonder if I need to reduce the plate Ra to get the voltage higher to make it louder?
I pulled the signal between the wiper of Vol pot and pin 2 of V1b
