That's old news.  :icon_biggrin:
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

I read several of the articles as well as many of the ads. Interesting to see what was on the cutting edge back then. I especially liked the metal detector. Someone should take that idea forward and apply some modern technology. Maybe even develop an underwater version.

My Dad had some of those magazines when I was a kid, and Radio Craft magazines  etc
One of those old magazines had a thing on the cover, about "the new screen grid tubes"  :icon_biggrin:
I'll never figure this out......
