Got the new tube, everything's fine, response to the tuning is OK. Thanks for the hint. Have a question on B+ voltage. The 1500 ohm 10W resistor at the rectifier had been replaced with a 1000 ohm. Could be on the account of the half dead E-caps.Now, after recapping, my B+ at the plates is 230v instead of 180v. How detrimental is it for the occasional usage of this set? Thanks.
