It's worth checking the HT and LT with the alternative reccy just to see if there is any difference. If you are still only getting 70V, it's probably not high enough. Of course, it could just be the DK92......!

It was only a suggestion about the 1N4007. No harm in carrying out a temporary mod just to prove a point. I've currently got two of these in a Philips radio temporarily replacing an AZ31 while I work on the rest of the set. It'll get a new AZ31 and output valve when it's finished.
