Philco 42-1012 Power up
#1

ALL, I have finished the recap on the chassis. My speaker is in the cabinet in the garage so I cannot hook it up at this time. Can I power up and not hook up the speaker just to make sure everything is now OK.. I have a dim bulb tester with a 60 watt bulb. I also have a 200 watt bulb for initial testing when everything is back together.. Can I put in all tubes with the 60 watt bulb or do I have to use the 200 watt.

Remember I do not have the speaker or the turntable hooked up yet..

So what I am really asking is what tests I can do now without the speaker and turntable..

Or do I have to move the chassis out to the Cabinet and hook it all up..[b][/b]


Thanks
