Hi Mondial.
Thank you for the reply!
I had to replace the 6J8 tube socket as you may be able to see in the picture.
I also happen to have four other 40-180 radio chassis, of which, 2 are complete and work fine, and the other two are in line for renovation. So, I have quadruple checked the 6J8 wiring and cannot see a problem. I did find that I miswired cap 10 to the 1235, but after correcting this, and firing up the unit, resistor 29 still smoked.
Stumped.
