You are right on the money Terry! there is a 2mfd electrolytic from the clip to the plate of the 47 tube. Someone has monkeyed around with this set sometime in the not too distant past. So it may have been added at that time. It's going to be a lot of fun undoing someone elses hack job Icon_crazy !
Thanks for your input and Happy New Year!
