Help Needed on Halli SX 140

Hello to the group,
I have been restoring a Hallicrafters SX 140 and it now receives
well and is quite sensitive, but the S meter barely moves. Is this
normal for this receiver or should it move quite a bit like most other
Halli's? Does anyone know if there were any errors on the schematic or
if this radio has any trouble spots? Any hints? 73 Mike KF6KXG
Look at the voltage on the AGC line and see. If the AGC voltage is
in the ballpark, there's an issue with the meter or the resistors that
feed it. If the AGC voltage is way off, the receiver may be TOO
sensitive.
