Both correct.

Interesting how the field coil is run on the negative side of the power supply, I haven't seen that before.

Just wired it in they had one wrong, when I first brought the up voltage and when the set was at full voltage it had a loud 60cyc hum but that's all gone now. Thanks

Sure. Did you replace the one that was wired wrong? Hundreds of volts the wrong way across a cap will likely shorten its life if it isn't already dead.
