Thanks tab! Very interesting. And on that octal socket Arran It's the 75 tube that was changed to a 6Q7. Don't ask me why I'm just trying to gather info on this set before I start on it. I already have a 6 pin socket on it's way but I haven't ordered the 75 tube yet. Kind of glad I didn't after reading the story that tab put there. I may have to put some real work into this one.

Sure would like to see what one of those brackets looks like that the original filter caps were on. I could probably make one.

Thanks,
Pepper
