Hello guys,
I have a question Far as Ac ripple I finished restoring this Philco 51-930 using my fluke 87 I measured about 3 volts Ac across the first Filter cap off of the rectifier tube C7c which is 47ufd I read about 3 volts ac across it and C7b which is a 30ufd reads just like 1.00 volt ac the Dc on both capacitors is just fine and I hear no AC hum .
So is the reading just caused by what meter that I am using or what do you think ?

Sincerely Richard
