>From what you say, I assume you have reinstalled the transformer and powered
up.  You should try to check the plate & screen voltages on the 6146s (750 V
and 205 V), make sure the VR tube is glowing which indicates it is
regulating (150 V), and check the low voltage to see if its 300/310 V.
Don't know whether your transformer was rewound with a primary for 122/125
VAC or the original 117 VAC.  If it has the original primary winding ratio,
your voltages could be 5% to 10% higher depending upon what your actual line
voltage is.

I have recently had the transformer in my ht32b re-wound and put back in
the chassis.

Are there any initial settings that I need to make before putting it on
the air ? I have set the bias voltage according to the manual but don't
have the instruments to do much else at least with any confidence. What
are the groups thoughts ?
