Philco 49-607 inop
#3

OK, first things first: As Gary has said, do not power up, not with dim bulb, or anything else, until all the tubular/backelite/electrolytic (with the exception of the mica) capacitors are replaced, and the tubes tested.
Then you will tend to other things.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
