Philco Mod. #44" Need help"
#3

I beleive so. one of the electrolytic can cap is cut it is a 8-8-10 mfd. the wire now goes to 2 capacitors one is a silver box about the size of 2x3inches it is 8mfd and another tubular cap that is 10+10mfd these appear to be very old though. The othercap not on the schematic also very old is connected across the bc wire wound resister that is 263ohms&21ohms that cap is a 10mfd. all of these caps that I mention are electrolytic. Added note while waiting for a response about my question I changed the 80 tube and did the dim bulb test again. This time the 100w bulb lit up very brightly so I quickly shut off power. according to the instructions I have about this test it means I have a short circuit in the filter capacitor of power supply. Does that sound right to you. Thanks for taking time to assist me. I'am new to this and want to take my time and do this correctly.
