The procedure makes sense and is all sensible. However, in my newbie-ness I am not sure which is the rectifier tube. I have the following tubes - two 6D6, two 76, one 6B7, one 80, one 6G5. The 6G5 seems to be the glow light that comes on to tell you you're tuned into something, that's under the chassis. Everything else is on top. Sine I'm trying to learn as fast as I can, what does the rectifier do? Is it the same idea as a diode, allowing current to only flow in one direction?
Regarding the caps, only one of the cans on top is a capacitor, the rest are coils. The schematic seems to show them as being 8mf, nothing about voltage. These are high voltage, right? I can read most of the writing on the paper caps, low capacitance, high voltage. Those I can replace. Anybody have any insight about my output transformer situation? The schematic says I need a tube to line transformer, model T-62-A-26, which is not there. There is a small cardboard wrapped box under the chassis that is wired as if it's the tranny, but I haven't taken it out yet to get any info off it. I'd like to put the tranny back on top where it belongs. Any idea what I need and where to get one? Thanks as always for the help, gents.
