Philco 650 Rectifier tube bright!
#1

Hey all, I got a nice Philco 650. The person I got it off of said they plugged it in and it smoked, so, replaced all the paper caps, checked resistors, brought it up slow and found that the rectifier tub an 80 tube glowed like a light bulb , actually, when inspecting the radio, there was an 83 in there so I put the 80 back in. Anyway, I pulled the 80 tube and everything seemed fine, the tubs all light nicely, the shadow box light lit, no smoke. Any ideas?
Thanks, Eric
