This set worked when I got it, but was very distorted. It was my subject at a repair workshop held by the BVWS.
With expert guidance and information that UL41's vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, (Internal connection) the set requires a slight modification to make it work on any make of UL41. Basically pin 4 is used as an anchor point for various wires, These valves start to 'leak'with age causing distortion. By removing the wires from the pin there is no signal path and so the distortion goes. A very LOUD set. I wonder how many UL41's have been thrown out as faulty when in fact they are not.
The cabinet needed a thorough clean and the scratches polished out, now its fine.
