Hi everyone,
Looking for advice here. I've just re-capped a Philco 42-340. All seemed to be going easy...until I powered up. The radio was silent ...After a period of time,, > 3 minutes, the signal popped in and seemed great on all bands (2) good sound, and voltage measurement seemed fine. B+ is about 190V (180 on the schematic) I'm at a loss as to where to begin looking.
If I inject a tone at different points...I get it from front end all the way through. If's aligned good.
Any suggestions out there?

Joe
