38 116 low volume after recapp
#10

All the resirtors were in spec or replaced. The trans had six pins, three on each side. I did check the transformer for continuity, but its hard to match up pins to the schematic as there are six pins and a lot of wires. I do get 400 ohms on one side of it (right bottom and right middle pins of the trans). I am prerry sure this is primary based on connections. It should be 400 ohms, so it checks.

From either 10 k resistor/trans connection (parts 100 and 101) I get a 160 and 179 ohm reading which is correct though I cant completely make out the other pins. Form the top left pin (one side of a 10K to the middle pin on the left side I get 179 ohms), the schematic calls for 175. From the other 10k resistor/trans connection I get 160 ohms (top right pin to left side bottom pin on trans), it should be 150.

I do not get voltage on either side of 100, 101 or the junction of 115/116. No voltage on pins 5 of the 6L6 either. I am measuring from chassis ground to the pins/connection points here.

Thanks for all your help. I really want to get this playing. I am refinishing the cabinet now!

Steve
