The bakelite block inside was ok no shorts but the outside, one of the terminals was burn off. Thinking it was some solder splatter or something. Put it back together is work fine. Cleaned the volume control and lubed the switch. reinstall and works good now.
But have a couple of other issues. Screen voltage on the rf/mixer tube is low about 45v should be 80v. The dial cord for the dial mask broke and audio has some hum. Pretty sure it's coming from the det/1st audio stage.
more to come
