I need more clarification but this time on the connection of the + side of the 12ufd filter cap #61. The radio was altered and is running a 5Y3 rectifier instead of the 84. The 84 had the indirectly heated cathode but the 5Y3 doesn't have a cathode. I've looked at other radios that are running a 5Y3 and it looks like the + side of my 12ufd will connect to the field coil as shown on the schematic but also connect to one leg of the 5Y3 filament. Is this correct? Here is the NA copy of this 40-190.
