Ron,

Thanks So Much for taking the time out to post that info for this noob. I didn't really think a '38 tube compliment would work either but I haven't pulled both those chasisses & compare side by side & don't know enough yet to *compare* schematics side by side.

In the last 3 months feeling pretty good about my schematic reading & measures, to the radio itself. Came along a lot faster than I thought I would in little over a year of actually being a "fixer" now, instead of a "parts changer" Icon_lol Especially with yours & Mr. Goller's help.

39-19s fixed & ready to align. 66MB next(open coil suspect). 650 "white elephant"(faint volume) after that, then to that 16B cathedral(no escutcheon yet) with that NICE K-17 speaker someone Icon_rolleyes supplied me with. Icon_biggrin

BTW, saw your photos of the 655, Nice Job.

Thanks Ron for ALL your help you have given me so far,
Lloyd
