[Milsurplus] Navy RAL Filament Voltage: Solved

[Joe Connor]

Thank you to all who responded to my request for help yesterday. I just found the problem that caused my heater voltage to hover around 4.8VAC, not 6.3VAC.
There are four RF bypass caps on the heater circuit for the detector tube. They're .01 caps listed as molded micas. On mine, one was shorted. Once I disconnected it, I had the proper heater voltage. Needless to say, I'll replace all four of these caps.
Again, thanks for all the advice.
