Any Model 65 restorers/owners out there?
#10

Sorry, Ron.  Have been offline while I was awaiting the grille to come back and fixing up a Crosley D-25 for sale on Ebay to make back some of my investment in this Model 65.

Tried out a number of scenarios, and could not drive the tubes into oscillation regardless of the volume setting.  I will tell you that one of the 24 tubes was bad, so I replaced with a set of 24a's.  Not sure what you are running, but perhaps the 24a tubes are not as susceptible to oscillation when driven hard.

Outside of that, if there is anything you would like me to test, let me know.  Turned on my email notifications.

Also saw that you rebuilt the transformer. That was the only item I did not have to touch on mine, but also did not have to work on a mouse house either.
