I got to prodding around when checking voltages around the tubes. I found on the filament terminals to chassis ground on ac I get about 150v on my Fluke. Same on all except the 5Z4. I get 5v to ground. Don't know if I have something connected wrong or what to make of that. It is very low current. I can use the VTVM and I get about 40v. I have a non-described green wire with yellow tracer on the PT - I assumed it was a ground, so I grounded it. I couldn't find any continuity to anything when I tested it, including the mounting bolts. Could be some leakage?
If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything"
