Thank you for the feedback.
I emailed Radiodaze and it turns out they already make a large number dial glass. It is part #DG-279 if anyone was interested. I will likely start to address cosmetics once it is running properly.
Got my Metalbone kit yesterday. Seems to be really nice. The documentation is awesome and everything is really organized. I am really impressed so far.
I took care of the rectifier and bias caps last night. This is my first time doing an electronic work like this so I am I am pretty pleased with how clean it turned out:
I visited Rick from North GA Vintage Audio Repair (really nice guy) this morning and he tested some tubes for me and hooked it up to a variac and took it through the paces to make sure nothing was out of the norm. When I initially got the receiver, I would hear a hissing sound from the power tubes but that seems to have gone away so hopefully that is no longer an issue. I am thinking it was the rectifier going out or bad bias caps or a combination of the two.
I was worried I would need new power tubes but all of them tested about 90% so I will keep running them until they die. I also put in the 3.3k resistor to hopefully reduce the strain on the power tubes but I will check voltages once everything has been replaced and see what needs attention.
