Quote:Try removing the 80 tube and slowly powering up the set again. Connect your DVM set to AC volts across the problem cap and watch for any voltage rise. If you see any significant AC across the cap with no rectifier tube, then something is up with the power trans.

Ok, I pulled the 80 tube and checked voltage across the cap. No voltage at all. No overheating either. Went all the way up to 115 on the variac.
