Philco 89B code 123 newbie
#18

My dim bulb tester is lighting up when I turn on the set with only the 80 rectifier tube inserted, so there's probably an issue with the rectifier circuit.  One of the two 8uf caps tests correctly in circuit but the other one tests 14uf... maybe too much dwell time cooked that cap.  Dunno  Gonna have to take it apart and see and then probably test every connection in that circuit...
