Well, this is evening, and it sounds better with the new transformer.
there is that hum again, it seems to appear in the evenings, but it does not seem to behave as bad with the new transformer.
Well, this is my plan of action:
1) for whatever reason the Philco tube behaves just a smidge better in the detector place. Gonna leave it there.
2) The new transformer behaves noticeably better. Gonna try to fit it (it is a 25Watter but is still cheaper than the Hammond P-P). if it does not - I will buy a 8-kOhm-to 6.6-kOhm/8-Ohm transformer and put it in.
This will be it for this baby.
