Well done- hope you got it for a good price! I had an early Hitachi slightly older than this one, many years ago. In standby, it left the tube heaters running at reduced power. Whilst not good practice, it hadn't done the tube any harm. Amazingly well designed set- nothing like the British stuff I was used to!
When you get it, post some internal pictures and the model number. Someone will be able to come up with a
circuit diagram (not a schematic-arrgh) and then we can do some fault finding!
Lloyd- I always found delta tubes rejuvinated really well- they seem to have massive cathodes compared with later PIL types. Have you tried doing yours?
all the best
