I do read too fast...I did read that and I missed the "just change the cap" part of it. 
Do you have any suggestions for my speaker Loud humm problem. I've triple checked the tubes and wiring. It sounds like wiring doesn't it? I've checked the output transformer for shorts and opens and resistance values. It checks good.
Could it be the candohm looking choke? I have replaced that with 500 ohm 50W resistor. I heard a pop that sounded like it came from that, but it looks good and still measures 500 ohms. Can chokes be just resistance or do they have to have inductive quality's?. Nevermind, I just SLOWLY read where if you replace a choke with a resistor it can cause an output humm....Neal
