Could someone pat me on the back?
#26

DK, Mortzh explained the slight difference in resistance measurements for the output transformer's inputs. Your transformer looks to be fine. The slightly higher readings for the DC readings from each plate to ground on the 45s could well be due to measuring with a digital meter. Back in the old days when they measured these voltages and annotated them on schematics or tube data sheets, they were made with meters of the time, the good old analog VOMs. They loaded down the circuit a lot more than the modern digital meters and hence read lower voltages. I think your just fine. Not to panic. Now, could you please give us a summary of how the radio is working?
