Well, Sam, I did mention previously (page 4, post #58 ): It's funny...the 6T5 was the only bad tube. The rest are all good. Yes, most are metal; pardon me. I do not have a lot of ST style octal tubes and of the ones I do have, I'm saving them for use in my 1937-38 Philcos. Pin 1 of each socket is connected to chassis ground (I checked). So even though it doesn't look pretty by Brand Z standards, it is functional.
I also wrote in the same post, Little Joe's parents are not collectors and they won't mind that this set has some Philco parts.
They also won't mind metal tubes. Why throw them out when they are perfectly good? I have the tube shields and I can always install ST glass tubes later on, after I get back to work.

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM |
