Thanks again Jerry;
I put a couple of pieces of Masonite under the end where the 42 output tubes are to provide more air circulation. I just wish now that I had done this before I started! Oh well, better late than never. I am going to order some more replacements for the remaining paper capacitors. I mis-counted originally and did not order quite enough. One thing I discovered as I was finishing the cap replacements was that the resistors in the phase splitter circuitry and split phase drivers had changed in value anywhere from 19% to as much as 57%. I am glad I ordered plenty of them to have on hand. I hate having to disconnect things twice in order to replace something I could have taken care of in one step.
