Hi

While C403 might be suspect...to be honest, what you describe sounds like normal operation to me. In my experience, many vintage radios tend to drift slightly after they have warmed up for awhile.

Oh, and Model 46-200 Code 121 uses the following tubes: 7A8, 7B7, 7C6, 50L6GT, 35Z5GT. Code 125 sets change the 7B7 to a 14A7, the 7C6 to a 14B6, and the 35Z5GT to a 35Y4.
