Generator problems 1800

ok, well after another round of testing this is what i have with the car running. The DF on the generator is grounded. The generator is putting out about 1.4 volts or so at idle which increases with speed. The regulator is getting that voltage at the line in from the generator. B+ has 12 volts on it. and the regulator is not closing the connection even with increased rpm. However, when i close the connection, the voltage on the line in from the generator (D-) i think- i cant quite read that on my diagram- jumps to around 10 volts. So to me it looks like i have a regulator problem & from my last post above a generator problem- alternator time?
