Hmmm...something is causing resistor (49) to draw way too much current! In normal operation it should run cool.

Line "C" is the main B+ coming out of the filter network. A quick way to check this is to measure the resistance between terminal 9 of the large filter cap block ( 48 ) and ground, with the set UNPLUGGED.

Questions:
* Do you have the complete service info for this set yet?
* If not, have you contacted Chuck at the link I gave you above?

You are really going to need to see more than just the schematic; and you need the complete service data for that. I have the Model 95 manual (16 pages) in high-resolution PDF format; I can send it to you if you have a broadband connection (13 MB). If you're on dialup it is better to order from Chuck.

Let me know...

EDIT: Yes, the long ceramic resistor is 8300 ohms and the shorter ceramic unit is 800. If these measure okay, that's a very good thing.
