Hello Everyone,
I have a 38-116 I'm going to be tackling for the next few months and need some help with the chassis. It is supposed to have a 5X4G Rectifier tube on top of the transformer, but the base is for a 4 pin tube. Any thoughts? Did someone add a 4 pin base and try to use another rectifier easier to find? Maybe an 80? Any thoughts on how to tell and what to look for? Unfortunately that was the only tube missing when I got it. It looks like its had some people in it too. I'm not an expert at restoring these things yet, so please keep it simple for me
