Replaced it with a 3 watt resistor and I get nothing but a little hum with the volume all the way up. My digital voltmeter is showing 60 volts positive b+ on the positive side of the electrolytic caps and 302 negative on the ground side. The electrolytic caps ground in the circuit and not to the chassis.

Well, what do I check now?
The schematic shows a 250 ohm WW resistor 1.5 watts, 3 watts OK! Is it a 250 or so ohms.
