EEEEEECK!!!!!
You may want to reclean your pb assembly with contact clean rather than wd-40. WD-40 leaves an oily film that may not be so good for the phanalic sp parts. Never use it any part that has HV on it. Have set blaze a few band switches over the years. It's pretty spectacular but a real pita to fix!!
If you are a type A personality you'll be removing the power transformer and replacing the rubber coated wire on it and with quick spray of black paint on the shells.. If you are you are like just put a 300ma fuse in the line cord and call it done.
Glad to hear it's up and running!
ps Is the Big Broadcast still on down there on 88.5FM Sat and Sun nights?

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!
