Ok, I've got an issue with a V4B on my bench right now. Well, one issue is an understatement, but I'm currently dealing with one.
Can anyone verify the resistance I should be seeing from the centertap of the OT to the plates? I know my 3.6 Ohm plate resistors are way out of tolerance, but I feel like I should still be getting far more than 0.062 Ohms from each side of the transformer on the transformer side of the plate resistors.
And forgive me ahead of time. I'm a solid state guy. Tubes are new to me, so I'm trying to grasp a lot all at once.
