Delco r 1141
#1

Hello,
I'm working on a 1938 Delco r 1141 and am having trouble replacing the electrolytic capacitors. Someone replaced the original before me. Right now one positive side is connected to pin 6 of the 6k7 tube and the other one is connected to the terminal strip next to the power transformer. The negative ends are tied together and connected through a speaker field wire to B-. I get stations but very loud hum. I did replace the electrolytics. I'm struggling trying to follow the schematic. Are the positive ends of the electrolytic connected where they are supposed to be? 
Thanks
Jim
