If you are reading the voltages with a Fluke meter the B+ can read higher. I noticed on most schematics for old radios that voltages were taken with a meter that had a 1000 ohm per volt loading on the circuit. I forgot what the loading characteristics of modern DVMs but it is very high and does not load the circuit. I would think your voltages ar OK.

Here's another fine mess you have gotten me into. Oliver Norville Hardy.
