I picked up a nice 42-365 with the cabinet in excellent shape. I replaced all Caps and have been through almost all resistors, replacing all out of tolerance ones. I stopped to see how I was doing, and I only get static when powering up. This set has pushbuttons. I cleaned all of them with with deoxit. I don't believe there is a button for manual, just stations and television. I know that manual must be selected for sets that have it, but I don't think that is the issue here. Is there something I am missing about this one?
Thanks for any help!
