You'd be surprised. With a healthy PT and caps --- the B+ can jump more than a few volts.

That's been my observation as well.

Changes to the available B+ can easily amount to an increase of 7 to 20 VDC after overhauling a tired power supply. Be sure to inspect the power-rail resistors as well when replacing the filter cap array.

Could need new main filter caps.


It need filter caps and bypass caps too ( other 'lytics ) I 'm waiting for the parts from Antiques Electronics .

IMO , it should not change to much voltage , I don't hear hum (AC)


I just receive and install al new filter caps ; F & T

Voltage still the same . I'm not surprise , filtering working fine with old filter caps ,I did not hear hum this mean no AC ripple voltage , all voltage are DC.
