I ordered some stuff from Mouser late one afternoon and it was delivered at noon the following day, these guys are good.
I definitely use the Power Limiting Safety Switch.
The 100 uF cap that I got to replace the series connected caps was too fat to fit into the filter cap tray. I had a 47uF that i installed. Replaced the rest of the filter caps, and the resistors around them. No more thunder, cracks and pops. Nice. The noise level is actually pretty good. Some solder connections in the amp I want to redo, and I might take a stab at galactic grounding.
When I was doing voltage checks, Plate and screen voltages on the 6L6s were 395, schematics put the plate at 437. they have the screen at 435 before the resistor. Can anyone tell me if the discrepancy in plate voltages is important and what it may indicate. The OT is only dropping it a couple volts, it is lower right from the rectifier. Should I try replacing the rectifier tube??
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...
