Beautiful set. Grandpa had an RE-45. I like plan B too. Also what Zenith suggested when 6X5's were taking out transformers, was to put ordinary dial pilot lights in series with the HV leads off the transformer, to act as fuses. Any surge would pop the bulb. Haven't heard of it done with Victors, but oughta be OK, belt and suspenders, treating old xfrmr gently, as it deserves. Be a pain to have to yank the chassis to change bulbs if they were underneath. Maybe they could be in a little metal handibox with cover off to the side where there's space in the cabinet.

The Rube Goldberg tuning arrangement, which works very well, BTW, is supposed to have a cover: do you have it?
