That makes sense now, thank you!
It looks as though the electrolytics were replaced in the 1960s or onward, which confused me at first because the 10uF and 25uF were simply combined as one (C101) on my specific set...
I think the thing(s) to do now is to replace the 680ohm resistor with a 1300ohm, which I had thought was the "dummy field coil" and to re-introduce the 300ohm in series with the transformer output. Fortunately, I had already ordered those components rated at 10W a couple of days ago based on the Sam's.
Also, the new part numbers appear to be right on for the open resistors that I have lying in front of me in the parts list, a + c...
I had also (prior) replaced the electrolytic capacitors with modern equivalents and the wax capacitors with the orange drop type without polarization.
I will await the arrival of the proper resistor values and let you know how things continue to progress...
Thanks!
Matt
