Thank you so much for that info. I just found another 1200 ohm resistor since the one in the set no longer read close to 1200. I understand where the tie strip is and I should have figured it out from the sch. I'll reconnect the two resistors and reattach the pos. cap lead. Just curious what wattage or temp do you use when working on the tube pins? I take the tube out first and use a 25w but sometimes use my gun when I can't get the component out with the pencil. I think someone else worked on this radio once before because the wiring for the rectifier was not correctly configured. I'm recording every thing I do now instead of relying on my memory. Thanks for taking the time to help a newbie.
