Remove the tubes, the terminal strips, and lugs in these locations, and disconnect the two orange 1000 pF
high-voltage blocking capacitors that go between the RF parasitic board and plate choke. Unsolder these
capacitors at the end that solders to circuit board above the Plate Tune capacitor. See figure 17
