box style shadow meter and magnetism woes
#7

Ok Here's some things to check. Pin 3 of the 42 tube should have about +320vdc from chassis. If it's lower than +300vdc find out why. If your 6A7 or either of the 39/44's have low emission that could cause it. Weak 6A7's are common.  Check #'s 66,26,33,34,and 37 for proper resistance, they may have drifted.
Now I'm assuming that you have replaced all of the foil/paper caps that are inside the bakelite blocks. If you haven't it's a must!

Happy Troubleshooting!

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
