Les,

It may or may not be a problem.  You should turn to the DC voltage chart and
measure the DC voltage on each of diodes D1 thru D8.  If all of the voltages
are roughly 10% low, it is not a problem, but if you have a bad diode, or
one of them oriented the wrong way, the variation will be much more than
10%.
