ok...so..actually measuring the thing...looks like at 125v into the selenium it puts out about 108-109..[looks like it's still working about right anyway]..accounting for the increased input of 125V over the original design specs of 117v AC...i'm thinking the design voltage should be about 100V out of the rectifier...sound about right?
adding up the plate current for the tubes gets me to 94 Ma...so call it .1A...sound right?am i still on track? so if i need to drop 25v...running this through various calculations it becomes a 263ohm resistor carrying about 2.5 watts...sound right?...there is a wire resistor off the selenium of 33 Ohms connecting it to the Can cap..handy that 300 Ohms is a value i saw tossed around a bit in other online forums and that's pretty dang close if i remove the wire resistor and just use a 300 Ohm resistor from the diode to the cap...i do much better with hands on testing,pretty sure this will work...but i'll give it a shot,measure and see...
