reports are in....
Measured DC voltage between cap(+) and diode connections..pin1 is 275-280 and pin3 is 281.
Pin 5 grounded was 5.9 VAC.
ground pin3 was 213AC... ground pin2 was 214AC.... and between the two it was 495AV voltage.
I also ground the pin1 as suggested and the tube lit up..but still no soudns or stations with antenna and speaker hooked up.

So should I replace these electrolytics with new ones and wire them as they are currently?
And proceed to install caps and check along the way?
suggestions and comments....much appreciated

Progress is being made! Can you measure between the + of the cap and chassis ground, and between the + of the cap and it's other end ( - ) The cap should have about 250VDC across it.
