Philco Hippo code 125
#1

Hello Everyone i am working on a hippo currently and am a little stumped . I recently did a recap and am having some difficulty's, It starts to warm up and then blow`s the light bulb . I have rechecked and double checked   my work and can`t seem to find why this is happening . The 35y4 test`s good but i swapped it out with another good one , still dint change anything and i also swapped out the 50b5 as well I have been going through resistor`s and they seem to be within reasonable spec . The only thing that i can think of next is could the socket be causing this problem . ? Any tips would be much appreciated!

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
