Almost completed, waiting for some wire for the speaker cable.
Underside. All caps stuffed, all resistors original and good. Most of the wire replaced to get rid of the "crispy" wire. Only the antenna wires and a little bit of the low voltage (filament) wire is original. the wire that is original has been saturated with clear acrylic plastic corona dope to help insure good insulation.
And behold, there is light.

Thanks Morzh. So it appears I did wire it incorrectly and I have to switch the wires between pins 2 and 4.bobclausen — 09:24 AM |

No, it's not a problem, just during certain condition it could show up.
Yes, an internal tube short could do that too.
