Philco 49-607 inop
#1

Hi, I am new to the forum and excited to increase my knowledge of antique radios.
I was given this inop Philco 49-607 and would like to know where to start my troubleshooting. I powered it on through a dim bulb tester. The bulb did not light. Tube 117z3 glowed bright for a moment and went out. I did see light from other tubes and got no sound even at full volume. The label shows code 121.
I am hoping to get some guidance as I am limited on my knowledge of tube gear.
Thanks 
James
