Jack,
The adjustable resistor (R35) has a direct affect on the screen of the
6146, so that is normal if the clamper (V6) is performing correctly.
I'm sorry, I have lost track of what you have checked/replaced, but I
would substitute a known good 6AQ5 if you haven't. You may have to
adjust R35 to get the needed screen voltage on the 6146. Be sure and
check the 11K ohm resistor (R38) as I have found this three resistor
network to be out of tolerance more than once.
Rick
Screen voltage is 150 and the nom is 190.
However, R35, the Modulator Screen Voltage Adjustment resistor seems
to go to the clamp circuit and it is not at all clear what is going on
here. It seems to me that diddling with it changes the screen voltage
on the 6146....
