I was recapping my 38-9 tonight and as usual I check all my resistors. One I could not find. It is the (#20) 51K resistor coming off sec of the 2nd IF can to the input of the Volume pot. I could not find it in the diagram or my radio chassis. I did resistance check between pin5 of 6J5 and the (#21) .01 cap at input of Vol and got 72K. So I am guessing it is possibly inside the 2nd IF can and drifted high. I tried to remove the cover of the 2nd IF and it was NOT coming off the IF stack. Before I start REALLY going at it I wanted to make sure that resistor IS inside that can and the cover should be removable.
