It will not power up.

If someone could provide a schematic for this set that would be great. Model PL 17F33B Chassis 15D1B

Admiral schematic or photofact 471-1 I just need the schematic.

I also have decided to obtain an 8YP4 test CRT. I have a couple of Predicta holiday chassis that could benefit from this CRT also.

This is the correct CRT right ?

In the interim being a series set (admiral 6.3 v) what size resistor should I use to complete the heater string from the missing CRT.

Also if anyone has a 8YP4 they want to sell please let me know. I know there is one on E*** but untested

Thanks,
Bill
I was just trying to remember if the 8YP4 has the RCA or Sylvania/Zenith style base. They refer to S/Z type as the shell base. If it has the shell base, you have to find or make up an adaptor to use the tube in an Admiral.
