I took my readings today with new mullard 6v6 tubes and new mullard 12ax7 tubes, here's what I got:
B1: 460, B2: 453, B3: 442, B4: 300, B5: 291
V1 Pin1: 170, Pin3: 1.78, Pin6: 170, Pin8: 1.80 V2 Pin1: 194, Pin3: 1.58, Pin6: 196, Pin8: 1.55 V3 Pin1: 311, Pin2: 38.7, Pin3: 61.5, Pin6: 307, Pin7: 38.5, Pin8: 61.4 V4 Pin3: 455, Pin4: 451 V5 Pin3: 456, Pin4: 451
Now when I bias my power tubes I get two different readings on the bias points. So I'm looking from the back of the amp, the bias point closest to the V5 power tube I'm calling that the left bias point and the one closest to the V4 power tube the right bias point. When I check the readings on the left bias point if I set that to 22mV, the bias point on the right reads 26.0mV. If I set the right bias point to 22mV, the left bias point reads 18.4mV, is that normal? For now I left it so the right reads 22mV and the left reads 18.4mV so I don't blow my tubes again.
Im going to continue to check my wires for continuity and my solder points to see if I can find anything else.
As far as the fuses go, there are still good. I replaced the HT fuse with another .5A SLO BLO fuse.
Thanks for all your help.
