I just obtained an old viking rc-304 radio. I plugged it in tunred it on and it all seemed to work but no radio or sound. Sure enough i looked in the back and lamost all the tubes were glowing red. I'm very new to tubes but i have a god undertsnading of electronics. I wanna know if there all dead and what the problem may be. inside it there are 2 6v6 gt,6av6, 6ba6 6be6 12ax7 12at6 but the schematic has the six crossed out in pen and replaced with a 7. So yea any help would be great. and maybe some info on where to get tubes?
thanx alot
