The sound is encouraging! I would not run the set any more than you have to due to the caps. Note that the hv rectifier (probably a 1B3 or similiar) will likely not have a visible filament. As for finding out tube numbers, I assume there is not tube location chart present with the set? Usually pasted to the inside of the cabinet or on the chassis. Do you have a model number? I don't think many Regals were made so one way or the other we could find a tube chart for this beast. Any of the tubes for this machine will be readily available via mail order, at least. My guess, off hand, is that you have some bad caps that are, for one reason or another, keeping the hv from running. But there are all kinds of things that could keep you from seeing a raster, from a bad picture tube to a misadjusted ion trap, other bad tubes...I've seen a dirty tuner keep a set from putting any light on the screen. Take your time, ask questions often!
