I had these symptoms in a friend's AL80B. The problem was a grid-filament short which showed up only when the tube was hot. Try a new tube. Vic K2VCO Fresno CA

In my FWIW dept. I looked over the entire amp and didn't find anything of conncern. I did find a burned resistor which turned out to be in the external 12vdc line. , but no burned bandswitch contacts

Or there's a grid to filament short, while hot or cold. With an elevated B- rail and grid metering between B- and ground, plate current will flow through the grid meter shunt and can't be cut-off. T

Take care about the glitch diode. In an SB-1000 (same animal) that someone else had "pre-repaired", I had weird meter readings on 160m until the glitch diode was replaced with a 1N5408. It turned out

Another way to find a tube with a bent filament is with a high-potential tester. A grid-filament breakdown of under 5kV indicates a bent filament that may short when the filament is hot. C. 8kV is n

If the bypass cap has a low XC at the frequency of operation, there should be a low V across the capacitor. The 1nF bypass cap has 88.4-ohms of reactance at 1.8MHz. There is roughly 1A of RF current
