37-11 Rectifier
#1

Recently I acquired a 37-11; it looks like someone had cut all of the resistors and caps from the power supply; they also cut the wiring to the magnetic tuning and dial lamps and more cut wires dangle from everywhere. Those aren't the problem however.

In rewiring the supply I found that the original wiring is for a 5Y3 and not a 5Y4. Is this an early version? Does anyone else have a 37-11 that uses a 5Y3? There don't appear to be any service notes on this. While it is on the bench does it make sense to wire it for a heftier rectifier?
