Hello 

Although I've had vintage radios for a  number of years it is only
recently that I have acquired my first Hallicrafters a SX24 which I
intend to restore as original as possible.
   
For a 70 odd year old set it still works well but has had several
alterations over the years including a new output transformer (seem
fairly common) and has had its first bottle replaced with what looks
like a ECC82 ( less common I think).

Although I have a circuit diagram and service instructions I was a
little surprised to find that neither quotes typical voltages for the
tubes. Was this practice normal for Hallicrafters or have I missed
something?

Either way could some kind sole tell me what the voltages should be? 

Just for clarification, being in the UK my set has the "universal" mains
transformer which I don't think should make any difference - but I've
been wrong before.

Many thanks

Nick
