My Philco 41-250 either has a factory wiring error, or the schematic in the Philco manual I obtained is incorrect. The schemettic shows B-minus going to two 470K resistors (part numbers 53 and 54), and the other end of each resistor to a grid on one of the 41 output tubes. My radio had an additional 470K resistor between B-minus and those two resistors.

Do you have any ideas, or have you worked on one of these?
