New Project - 39-55
#34

Ok the under chassis wiring is complete. I checked over things and decided to give the set a little power. It go to about 70 volts AC and the motor had enough power to turn the power switch on. The dial lights lit up and no smoke. Icon_smile

Problem is there is a fairly loud buzz coming from the audio transformer, I shut it down hopeing to not damage it. I ohmed it out while I was rewiring and it ohmed out good. I must have futzed something up. I havent trouble shot it yet. Do you guys have any pointers.

The set didnt have any tubes installed, and the speaker was not plugged in. Would that cause the AT to buzz/hum?
