Hello Everyone,
Working on this GE J-105- C made by RCA using the R76 schematics. This has one of the huge can mounted on top with 15 caps inside. Most are non polarized so no problem but C36,C35 have me wondering if I have them connected properly.
I have the pos of 36 tied to the pos of 35 and the red lead tied there going to L3 and the neg of c35 going to the resistor block is this right?

The radio kinda works I get sound but it is very faint all tubes have tested good I've replaced a good portion of the dog bone resistors all others within 15%
