I did mention that this is a VHF Micor Upright RT system, as I bought all the parts, just did not get the cabinet. I am very familiar with the voltages at hand, I am not in anyway new to this, however I have been dealing with a disease that has affected my memory and thinking process of which I currently found out what it was. Lime Disease.
Anyways, the help that I am asking for is to note where all the extra wires goes. I have been looking at the schematics, thus is how I found that the ac power cord goes to the High Voltage PS. I have put all the pieces back in line per the manual. When I hook up the low voltage and high voltage power supply, just don't want to mix the wires up. If it were straigt forward in numbering it would not be so bad. I am going to be back at it this afternoon, and hopefully fire it up, or catch it on fire, hi hi.. So it's not that I don't know what I am doing, I just need someone to hollar at once I find a wire that I am not sure where it belongs.
