Yes, that was out of the circuit. I put in a new one but it did not help. I think I might be on to it though, This set has no power transformer, the way it was set up when I got it was incorrect but worked. It should have two seperate power lines. One is to a parallel / series string for tube heaters. the other, dual diodes for a voltage doubler configuration.But in my set the power goes from the off/on switch to a thermal variable resistor then branches to the tubes and the diodes.This seemed to drop the voltage down inorder to compensate for todays higher line voltages. well there is a bad 5w. 120ohm. resistor in the tube line. It reads 3.4 ohms out of the set. I think(hope) that this is pulling down my power from the other line. Some voltage readings were low and they were very close when I first finished this project. I may not be able to get another resistor until tues. so I will keep you posted, Thanks, Doug
