The machine will operate fine without the 2050 tube.  It's only needed whenyou use wallboxes.  I had a problem with mine long ago where the coil openedon the selection timing relay.  This caused the credit solenoid to stay activatedand it did make a very loud buzzing noise.  So as you know, the first step is tosee what's buzzing and fix that, so the machine can be put in a known point inthe play cycle.  The fact that the buzzing starts as soon as the machine is turnedon indicates it's coming from an electro-mechanical rather than audio source.
