I am a little confused about this measurement. The paperwork shows the 6BE6 for the FM on the front of the chassis and the AM on the rear of the chassis. However, I get about 295VDC on pin 5 for both of these tubes, but only on the front(FM?) tube when I have the switch to AM and on the rear (AM?) tube when I have the switch to FM.

Can someone confirm which tube is which?

Thanks!
