   Greetings!  I don't know if you are still active at this site, but thought I'd   
   reply just in case.  I may have a schematic for your Selectophone.   They made   
   numerous variations on this machine, so if you could send me the model number   
   on the amplifier,    
   I could look it up and see if I have the schematic.  Also, you describe the   
   rectifier as being a later tube, so it is possible the amplifier has been   
   replaced with a later one, or maybe just the rectifier was upgraded.  I'm a   
   jukebox collector, and have    
   a lot of stuff I've picked up over the years.  The Selectophone is one of my   
   favorite Seeburg machines and it's always nice to see one working as they are   
   difficult to get working to begin with.  startgroove@aol.com  Cheers, Russie
