I found out the electrolytics are full of microfarads, so I am tempted to try them. Then don't seem to be the drying type. One is 5uF and the other is 15uF.

Good thing that antenna coil that is separately wound inside the antenna transformer is intact. Rewinding that one would be discouraging.

Also the sch does not show the IF trap. Which is there.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
