Thanks a lot for the hint! At the end checkingthe schematics and unsoldering the wires that goes to the #56 Ecap gave me the answer for the moment: one wire wrong, I remember to tag that wire "go to #56" but from bias resistor to negative side, and was in positive... Changed it, and now the resistance (after checking that the transformer was not shorted) is arround 70kohm, with all tubes (less rectifier) I tried now with 90vac and looks ok, should I try now to plug the rectifier and check voltages in ecaps?
Thanks again for the help

For a whopping $100.

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 |
