Hi All;
Thank You all for makeing things clearer for me.. I knew that the 135 volt DC was not AC, but with the modulation, I thought that it was a kind of AC, or modulated AC riding on a DC carrier..
The 9 Volt battery is more to my liking than any so far..
I would like to find some way, to have a speaker hooked up like my 4" speaker, and work my way back stage by stage, using my speaker as a guide as to whether anything is happening..
Only putting in the next in line tube only after I have checked out that stage going from the back to the front of the schematic.. The back being the speaker and the front being the Antenna..
My four inch speaker has its own output transformer but it does not seem to be balanced, so I will not use that transformer..
The speaker that came with this set is badly torn the voice coil is fine in it, but until I can make the cone more stable or solid, I don't want to use it..
But, not having a good 19 tube, and not wanting to wait the week, I am looking for another answer, such as my origional question.. So, given my limited tube supply, I could use a 6SN7, or a 6V6, I don't know if I have a pair of 6V6's to use as a push pull, but I wanted to keep it simple, using a twin triode, since that is what is in the Radio.. And easy to wire up.. Could the 6V6 be used like the Triodes ??
THANK YOU Marty
