Philco 90 found locally
#11

Take your time, replace/restuff capacitors all, and while you're at it, do all the carbon resistors too, cheap enough. Install a 1 amp fuse. Then and only then, fire it up slowly with the variac, and keep you're eye on the B+ and hands away from the bench. Well, that's what I do most often.
