Tonight, I seem to have found the issue with the LO. It seems that it was bad contacts in the bandswitch, but not in the section I'd been concentrating on. I now have all bands working and well calibrated. I do need to replace the mounting screws on the LW trimmers, since one of them snapped off while I was cleaning the chassis, and it happened to be the one that grounds those trimmers.

Still need to replace a few caps in the tone control circuitry, and then the chassis is done. Hopefully, when I fire the beastie up tomorrow, the AMBCB will still be working, and I can call it good. Will be posting a WTB ad for a replacement speaker, since the cone on this one is pretty much totaled (amazingly, it still sounds pretty nice... go figure)
