B+ is measured at the point I marked on the schematic. B+ refers to the main DC supply in most sets - it's a carry over from the old battery days when they had A and B batteries - A Batteries were for filaments and low voltage bias, and B batteries (45V, 67.5V and 90V) were for the plate and other high voltage needs.

I marked up the schematic for you - hope it helps. Start with a 39 ohm 5W resistor and measure your B+, and follow my previous advice if it is high or low.

The Sams should carry you forth from here.

Cheers,
