Tubes test OK on a heathkit TC2 ( not sure if thats a decent tester or not??) and play OK, in the working set. I have a order of resistors on the way from just radios, and I have to admit I only ohmed out about half of them when I did the caps. What tolerance should the resistors be within?
Also have a signal generator coming in the near future.

Terry, im down rt.108 in clarksville.
