One other thing - the power transformers can get very hot ( they were too small in 1937 and they are too small now !). Strongly suggest a dropping resistor or a bucking transformer on these. I run mine at about 105 V which is the minimum recommended by RCA.

I hope you are making progress otherwise.

Best Regards

Chris
