Yes... the 7YA did blue some after i started smelling burning.

I had the chassis installed when i first started smelling burning. One or both 41s, i don't remember now... I think got bright. Then I unplugged it. (before moving it to the outlet on a switch).

Then I pulled out the chassis and saw the 7YA flickering blue some. I mentioned it in another thread, saying quote:

"one of the front vac tubes is flickering blue inside like lightning some"

Then I realized I needed to just create a separate topic on the proper board for help with this, rather than continue in my introductory thread on the "home Radios" board.
