philco 42-350
#5

i figured it out,removed all the tubes,turned it on,no trans smell or heat, replaced the 7v4,started to heat up the 270 ohm resistor off the center tap,rubber covered wire between 7v4 and 7c5 shorted to chassis,rewired what i think is heater string from first tube to the last one,replaced all tubes in sockets ,she fired right up and plays well.score one for the rookie!!thanks for the specs,phil
