Well I have checked each cap and resistor, all good and correct. I have traced each wire and check each coil, again all test fine. I have fixed the shadow meter and aligned the set. I still have voltages outside the norm. I am running the set at 115 AC and took all voltage tests with a VTVM. Below is what the manual says the voltages should be and what I have tested. Most are within specs but the RF tube volts are very high. The radio plays very well and sounds good, just wondering why my voltages are way out of spec. Am I just chasing ghost and should leave it alone?
