Yeah, kinda thought that might be the case. Yep, c-8. Resistors don't use mfds. Also noticed B+ is about 14 volts low at the rectifier cathode, but plate voltages only about 5 volts low, i.e., 140 reading 135-138. Possible problem? Unfortunately don't have any 25z6's to replace it with. Anyway, will replace c-8 and see what happens. Thanks, Terry. Ed
Doubt 5v is going to make much of a difference. If you like excitement you tie a couple of 1N4007 across your 25Z6. Did I say that???That will get ur 140 up the abt 160.
