Delco r 1141
#12

Found some time to work on the radio. I changed the 8uf to a 10uf (what I had on hand) and moved it to the filament of 5Y3. I changed the 12uf to a 20 uf but left it connected to pin 6 of 6K7. I connected each negative end as stated by MrFixr55. No more hum! Picks up stations up and down the dial on broadcast and shortwave with plenty of volume. Quick check of voltages looks good. I still have a couple wax capacitors to change out and check all resistors but I think it's looking good! Let it play for 30 minutes and power transformer was cool to the touch.
