Well, this is what we meant - NO LOAD WHATSOEVER. No load means no load, period. The rectifier tube really loads the filament with 0.5A PLUS if it is in, it then connects the transformer to your other things, like caps, and if they are shorted, you power supply suffers.

So, let me guess....you are trying to power it without recapping and removing all tubes first.
Not EVER a good idea.

You transformer is likely fine. If you did not damage it in the process.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
