UPDATE:
Well, I'm seriously considering throwing in the towel after taking the chassis out and looking at all the rotting insulation on the wires. Not a fun job replacing all that.
Also frustrated with not being able to get the dial lamps to come on... I tested for shorts and found the 6.3 volt line to be shorted to ground somewhere. Weird thing is the power indicator lamp comes on okay. This thing is a nightmare of wiring: pinched wires under tube sockets, though components.... maybe someone with more experience wouldn't be so daunted.
Are the parts worth anything to anybody if I decide to break it apart and get rid of it?
