Need help on 40-180 chassis
#16

OK, just got everything back together and did what morzh said to do. So with the signal generator hooked up to the antenna screw thru a .1 cap and volumn all the way up I put 40 AC volts of signal to the plates. Then I connect the voltmeter to the secondary side of the OT and had at times .7 volts  max and it would drop to 0 and fluctuate from 0 to .7 volts. So looks like my problem is the transformer is not putting out. I will be looking for a replacement. Learning experience for me so thanks mortzh. I'll know more how to test these in the future. Once I find another I'll post the results.
