I know its not gonna take much to get this beast working.
That schematic and stuff is right down to the tee. Thanks!
anyway, according to the schematic, If i pull the rectifier tube, the B+ is cut off, so I dont have to worry about shorting.
I pulled out the rectifier, and plugged it in.
to my surprise, BOTH pilet lights work, and all the tube filiments are lighting.
so right there, its not going to take much.
Anyway, the rectifier tube is no where near original, its been replaced. I can tell. all the tubes are philco brand, and this on is tung-sol black base. I think it had died before.
Imma check the transformer windings for AC volts going to the rect plates under power while the tube is out, just to see if the transformer is good. Ill report back on that.
