Philco Farm Radio 38 123
#7

(02-21-2019, 06:27 PM)RCFlyer Wrote:  Power supply is putting out the correct voltages  except for the 135 Volt  lug is producing 124 volts and the 67 1/2 volt lug is producing 64 volts.  I checked the voltages at #19 and #30 tubes. T he heater voltage is 2 volts. The plate voltages are a little lower.   The bias voltage -7 of the #30 tube changes when I turn the volume control.
I'm somewhat confused on the alignment procedure. 
Thanks for all the help.

Trying to align a dead radio is not the way to troubleshoot, likely only create additional issues. Proper alignment relies on radio producing a signal that can be measured at speaker.
