Well after a while I came back around to the Admiral again......I may need to get my Heathkit tube tester checked out as well. With the help of a pal who has a real radio "lab" we figured the following:

12SQ7 was weak......

35Z5GT was weak....

12SJ7 was strong but glass tube where metal is specified....

Also my friend noted it had a #44 pilot bulb where a #47 is required.

So made all the change outs, plays stronger, better sound, and dial lights brighter.

So the Admiral is in much better shape.

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