Hi All;
Codefox, Thank You for your reply..
I wasn't talking so much about changing anything, but, on the Pages for the 34, they just give the plate and Screen Grid voltages, where as the 623 pages, they also give the rest of the voltages for the other grids..
I already have the Pages from Chuck for the 34.. They are a big help in following the wiring, with the schematic page all blown up..
I have set the filament voltage supply at 1.8 Volts just in case, I can adjust it from about 1.6 to about 2.4 volts.. So, 1.8 volts gives me some leeway, before hitting the top threshold, due to spiking when first turned on..
THANK YOU Marty
