It sounds like you are going by the schematic for Model 89, Code 123.

First, let's establish what you have.
Does it have a shadowmeter above the dial scale? If so, it is a Model 19. If not, it is an 89.
Does it have three knobs or four?
Is the second tube from left (when looking at the back of the chassis) a 36, or a 77?
While you're looking that up, let me address these comments, bear with me while I repeat:

That is not the 2nd IF transformer. That must be the large rectangular metal can which contains five paper capacitors. It has different schematic numbers, depending on the version.
This may help, or confuse you more:
