Pilot tv

[timmy]

Well the set works fine I was just thinking of this really because I don't know how the cabinet does not ignite because it gets extremely hot where those 2 tubes are. There are plenty of those tubes out there but if it were to much then I just as well leave it alone. When I got this pilot someone already literally redone the whole set and I mean every resistor, cap , even Micas were changed and all I did when I got it was put my own caps in and I could not get a full screen because of the low b+ now maybe the tubes I tried were not the best but I have read those posts on these sets and they also could not find out why they had low b+ IIRC 30 volts lower then the specified . So you are saying a 233 ohm 10 watt for the 35w4 and an 83 ohm 15 watt for the 25z6 . But then the diode would be in the neg position along side the resistor.
