Help Please! 38-116 Troubles
#18

I started back working on the radio today and discovered something. I touched the metal can of one of the 6l6's and got zapped. I checked voltage from chassis ground to the tube casing and I had 265 volts, actually both 6l6 cans had 265 volts. That is not normal correct? I disconnected the yellow wire with the green tracer coming from the transformer to the negative side of the electrolytics and it is not shorted to ground. Could this be the reason why the stations sound garbled and weak on the side of the band that is working? Any thoughts on where to start looking for that short?
