This is important advise for restorers: If a set does not look to have had any hack repairs or work done on it, and a part or parts don't match the schematic GO WITH THE WAY THE SET IS WIRED AND THE PART VALUES IN IT first. Many chassis went through several production changes, not all are documented and there is no way to tell if the schematic is the worse or better version, and that is assuming there are no mistakes in your schematic (I've had mistakes in service literature screw me up a few times now). The only times to make a set match the schematic are in the case of fixing untrustworthy hack-repairman workmanship, and in the case of testing and replacing all parts in a misfunctioning circuit and not curing the issue.....At that point if the schematic shows a different way of making the circuit it is worth a try, BUT make notes of how it was to go back to.....This advice applies to all tube era products IMHO.
