Hello,
I've got a mc75 that was rebuilt but after a few minutes of use i get a terrible hum. For the first 5 min after power up all the voltages are within
3% of the voltages on the schematic but then when the hum happens pin 1 of the 12ax7 (V1) shows 2v instead of 132V. For V2/12au7 pin1 is at 50v and pin 7 at -7v. Pin 1 of V3 12bh7 goes up to 412v. In the power supply 380v drops to 300v and 170v drops to 100v. All the capacitors ,resistors and diodes are new, i have tried new tubes as well. If anyone could suggest something else to try it would be greatly appreciated.
