RCA-76 cap question
#5

Well took some voltage readings per Riders page 3-35 They seem to be all over the place one Question I have at the top of the second column it says "Cathode or filament to control grid" do they mean the tube cap? Here are the numbers

1)RF 3.7 95 142 291
2)1st Det .5 47 122 294
3) OSC 3.6 0 --- 92
4) IF 3.6 50 134 282
5) AVC 0 0 --- 4.5
6) 2nd Det 0 .8 --- .8
7) 1st AF 14 14 --- 276
8) #46 396
9) #46 398
Got 2.5vac on all the heaters
Second detector seems to be the worse looks dead R-19 & 20 are good
just made some more checks before posting and it looks like L14 is open should read 2400ohms I removed it and will open the first layer to see if it's just a lead. Would it be considered a Choke coil?
Thanks
