Tube schematic for a Hammond chord organ, type S-6 ?

[Mr Tech]

I know this is a long shot but it doesn't hurt to ask.

My father recently acquired a Hammond chord organ, type S-6, form B.

It is missing 1 tube from what appears to be a power transformer.

Anyone familiar with this organ, or know where a tube schematic might be found ?

Thanks

Hi, you need to check out the "hammond zone" forum at Yahoo Groups.

All kinds of great help there and those schematics may be available.

Here's a B3 schematic, if the tube's in the power supply it'll almost certainly be a 6X4 & is missing because they are somewhat failiure prone!

edit : sorry huge schematic

Thanks Phil,

Yes the missing tube is in the power supply which has 2 tube soockets.
The tube that is there is a 5U4 and the other socket definitely takes a different tube.
Do you think the missing tube should be a 6X4 ?

Thanks again for the help.

NO!

Looks like it might be a 6BJ7

Here is the link for the whole model:
