Warm electrolytics?

Chad,

That was actually quite interesting, Thanks.

When I was replacing a tube socket in my zenith AM/FM radio, a solder blob was on the pins of the 12BE6 that I never noticed. I turned it on and it lit up like a light bulb. :P I checked the filament resistance and it measured fine, infact it completes the circuit in the filament string, but it doesn't get hot at all when I turn it on. It drops enough voltage for the string, but doesn't light up and get hot at all. Think this could be the same think thats happening to my video amp tube in my CTC9?

Thanks.

Jonathan
