I have been working on a Philco 71, Code 123 . Restuffed all the Bakelites but not testing the voltages on each tube. The radio will turn on and tubes light up safely on a dim bulb, isolation, and Variac. On the Type 37 tube, I am not getting a plate voltage but can see from the schematic that both plate and cathode are connected to ground. Would that account for the difference in the tube characteristics noted in the specifications for the tube which call for anywhere between 90-250 volts ?
