Hi everyone ,
I know I'm going to feel stupid for asking this question . But I have an old Heathkit SB-102 and it was working fine and then all of a sudden it stopped working properly .When I turn it on , the power only goes as far as the tube circled in the picture , and no further . That tube does light up , but nothing else after it lights up . That's as far as the power is going when it turns on . This all began after I replaced the next tube in line after it , with a good tube .

Any ideas as to what happened , what's going on , or how to fix it ? And no , just putting the old tube back did not fix it .... lol

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
