Hi, Shovel,thats perfect,your a great teacher! BCGuitar,(HolyCrap) thanks for verifying that wiring job.When you said that I knew I was not dreaming. Steve,thanks for the picture,it sure looks like the one I saw. Eli, you know a ton about tube amps and I want to learn from you.I still have copied answers from you on how to remove tone controls from the Dyna PAM's and am almost ready to start that project after a slight delay. Eli, that Heathkit was a giant 70 watt Colossus and maybe the rectifier tube could not maintain the AC to DC current or voltage transfer as do the diodes in a bridge....I don't know and I wish you would tell me. I do know most tube guys want the (soft start) of the diode tube. Uncle Stu for your input now and later too as I consider you a great teacher of the tubes. Thanks all you guys.....Mark...Shovel,I'll try your instructions tomorrow.
