Well the radio has been progressing and now plays great I have to this point using a variac to turn it on, now the problem is that it instantly blows the dial lamp a (6.3v .15a) and then I tried a .25a and it still blows all I had left was a #55 rated 6.3v .4a it turns on but it is extremely bright and then fades to normal. I put a clamp on on the dial lead and measured 1.2a in rush I would stay with this but it isn't right and would have to modify the dial face to accept the shape of the lamp. I checked the voltages per the inst and they seem ok to me here they are on the 35Y4.
