38-116 broken wire in sub-chassis
#3

Have a question regarding my 38-116.
Noticed in the center section of the sub chassis that there is a broken wire. Very fine wire that I think goes to item 16 on the schematic which is the RF trans. (range 1). Yet the schematics and parts list show a wire wound 400 ohm resistor(item 13) from the trans. to the tube socket pin that has item 14(.05 condenser) attached to it as well.
I do not see the wire wound resistor under there.
Far as I can tell, the cap is run to ground. The resistor looks like it runs parrallel to the cap on the schematic, both going from the tube pin on one end and to ground on the other.
Should be a wirewound resistor from the tube pin to the transf 16.
Can someone decifer this area for me?
Anyway I could scrape off a small spot of the wax and somehow attach the wirewound resistor 13 to trans. 16?
Looks like a real nightmare to work in there without pulling the whole frickin radio apart.
Schematics are confusing in this area.
