I bought this radio a while back and have been trying to repair it I have recapped it and when I power it up all I get is a hum from the speaker. ( After market modern speaker ).  Not quit sure where to start as my schematic has limited information and no voltage references. I'm also not sure on 2 capacitors of a can style that are .5 mfd @ 250V. The schematic shows no polarity. I'm not quite sure where to start.
