Hi Terry, thanks, I explained it bad, the little (3ohms) resistance I found was in the tube not connected, heater pins, this means that the filament is ok or is shorted? By the way I did the full check and @ 100vac (I was little afraid to go full voltage) all tubes changed with old spares I got time ago except the 80 (not installed as was told) and the 6v6 that had no other one, speaker installed again, Ecap #56 changed(was not bad but the tester showed some leaking) raising voltage slow everything was ok, at 100vac only 0,01amp was drained, all filaments in tubes were shining normally and the voltages in the socket of the 80 are 4,6volt for filament pins and 570 for the HV, this means that the rectifier was bad?
Thanks

As I was saying it doesn't look like they used much of a bobbin for the field coil, not like a Magnavox one wou...Arran — 05:49 PM |

This AK84 was bought, I think, last fall.
For a whopping $100.
It has been, according to the seller, restored.

Duh! I guess I can’t read an ohm meter today. I took the oscillator coil out and will take some readings tomorrow.Radios1340 — 05:30 PM |
