Still Having RCA 8TS30 Issues

One small concern I have is your mention of bypassing a resistor section...If it wasn't an end section and it isn't open or more than 10x above its rated value it's hard to bypass it without the original throwing things off or extremely delicate surgery to force open the original.

Personally the B+ voltages are close enough that I wouldn't be chasing them as a cause of any other issue.

it was an end section of the candohm that tested rather high at the time and was bypassed, forget which end. :/
I should have done the whole thing.
