116B Late '36
#1

Anybody around got a good pic or scan of the tube layout tag that's glued inside the cabinet? I was going to ask Bob but his mostly gone too. I didn't see one here on the Phorum but I may have missed it.

I have a couple 116Bs. Let me snap some pics with my DSLR, and post, and you can let me know if it's what you're looking for. If so, then I can get some cleaned up ones to you. I can probably get to it in an hour or so.

yes..sorry Terry, mine is indeed only partly there so I'll also be looking for a good photo or scan. Icon_thumbup

I'm thinking that both of the 116B's (early and late) should have the same tube lineup. The differences that I'm aware of are the cabinet and spkr size. There might be some minor electrical differences but they share the same schematic. You might want to post it down in the downloadable files section then all can get a copy if needed.

Tnx!
ps. now I have to find out what toned lacquer spray will make it look old and original.

It turns out I had already scanned and cleaned it up Icon_thumbup . Here's a link so you can grab it. I'll also post in the Downloadable Files section for sharing.  Icon_biggrin

But I can't seem to get the sizing proper. If I print it off of the link it sez it's 46% and it's kinda dinky. If I click on the + sign and boost it up to 60% it fills width on the page (8 1/2"). How can to the proper size?

The original is 4" wide x 3.25" tall. Hope that helps. What imaging program are you using?

I just realized, in order to size it properly, you need a guide. I added a border for cutting out to size. Here's the new file.
