Thanks for the help Terry

Everything recommended checked out ok

Turned out to be the 80 tube.  Very strange.  The tube had a white flakes floating about.  When checked in a Hickok tester it tests almost new!
When I put in in the circuit...I turned the chassis upside down to trouble shoot.  The tube plates short when turned upside down!

New tube solved the problem.

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM

Maybe this is starting to make some sense in my hard head.  Is this why the wire in question was not in the great Ron Ra...georgetownjohn — 04:34 PM
