So having (spent several weeks on my life I won't get back and having) resurrected a dead one of these amps, I'm about to button it up and call it fixed. On the one I have fixed, the screen voltages are all about 390-ish and the plates are running about 670-ish as measured with my bias probe.
I'm mildly concerned about the screen voltage being on the high side (JJ6550s), but it appears (correct me if I'm wrong) that the amp was designed to run the screens at 380V. Or is that 345V?
Take a look at the two sets of schematics (output tube board shows 345V screen node, and sheet 4 of the Power Amp schematic shows 380V going to the screens) and feel free to opine about this discrepancy.
