Philco Hippo code 125
#2

Check the polarity of the filter caps. If you have any in backwards it will cause excessive current thru the hv. This in turn will blow the lamp out. If this is the case the offending cap is toast and must be replaced with a new one. Also a half open heater in the rectifier tube will blow the lamp too.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
