Hi guys,

I'm working on my first. It is a 48-200. Simple, right? Got it with a loud hum and did a recap. Hum is gone but no sound. I have 2 schematics from different companies and they each list tubes but one shows a 35Y4 and the other shows a 35Z5GT. Also one shows a 50L6GT, the other shows a 50A5. (mine has the 2nd ones). The sticker on the bottom of the case shows the ones that are in the radio. Anyone ever run into this?

Thanks.
