Thanks Ron,

I tested all the tubes and they all check good. I then fired it up on my dim bulb tester...as expected a very loud 60 cycle hum but no smoke Icon_smile...faulty power supply cap I suspect.

Any good links here on the forum for rebuilding one of these?

Thanks again...
Best regards,
Kico
