Will do. I have insulated the secondaries with plastic. I realize that the the 1st capacitor should be the same as the original design to not overload the rectifier tube, and as such have used the same value. I have increased the value of the capacitor after the choke to 10 uF in the hopes of compensating for any lack of filtering effect from the choke. I will let you know what the outcome is when I get to the power-up stage. Still a LOT of work to do. I will bring the power up with my homemade digital watt-meter that gets its power from a variac, and I bring it up slowly with an eyeball for excess current and/or other nasties happening.
Many thanks for your expertise.
