Howdy! My apologies if I should not be starting a new thread...

All resistance checks are find except for terminal 12 and 14. They are both reading absolute zero. Wrong wiring to the c4s board?

12 and 14 have no connections.  Is your meter showing zero or "OL"?

Usually my meter will read 00.1ohm for those indicated to read zero.  In the instructions 12 and 14 are starred, so I assume should have some value?

I'm getting no reading on 12 and 14.  If I touch red probe to the top plate I read 00.1ohm 12 and 14 do not change the meter reading from the default 0.L

"OL" means "Over Limit", which is the opposite of zero.

My apologies. Still learning (clearly)!  Is this an issue, or safe to proceed?

Just looping back to let you know that all voltages have checked out fine, tubes are biased, and she is up and running. âš¡
