My Hickok 600 just acted up....?
#1

Last I used it was when I restored my 118 this summer. Was fine.
Today I received a 6T5 tube and decided to check it. As usual first tried the line.....it was at half the value where it usually is normal. It took me to move the potentiometer all the way up to bring it 2 divisions short of the middle. Without the tube inserted. 
Checked the line voltage, it is fine, 118V.

Tied to run the potentiometer back and forth, and power switch on/off a few times, no changes.

Will have to open it up.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
