Ordered a new volume control to replace the bad one.

I have a question, if I replace the 117Z3 rectifier tubes (2) with a 1N4007 diode & resistor, will I have to strap pin 3&4 the heater pins. It looks to this may not be necessary because they are not in the series with the other tube heaters?

What do you think?

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
