the filament voltage on pin 7 & 8 of the 6sq7 reading was about 7vac when set was warm and failing.
so........... that reading is good.
sorry tom,, i am trying to learn / understand jargon, - heater = filament =(insert another like term for the same thing here)
you know,, like
distributor points = hall effect sensor = pick up module ~all perform the same function yet time has changed the design.
i am trying to associate tubes with something i already know and what i can tell is a tube is just like a transistor yet it can have several Bases or "Grids" ,, which unto themselves have all the xxx"ODE" nomenclatures.
