Dude,
I think you have it wrong. SS doesn't need heater power. My educated guess is that the 5 VAC winding was disconnected.
If your power trafo's 5 V. winding has a CT and you use a 5U4, take the "raw" B+ off that CT. In all other situations, take the "raw" B+ off of pin 8 on the rectifier socket.
The pin 8 connection works for a 5U4, but there is a tad less hum using a CT, when it's available.
Think seriously about sending the unit to Mr. Deckert for a check out. If the DINGBAT that owned it previously was stupid enough to put that Weber stuff in, additional problems might be lurking under the surface.
