Newbie Model 71 questions
#2

Welcome! Lots to experience and helpful people here!

Looks like an older recap to me, possible from the 1980's. You can put an add on the wanted section and maybe someone here would have something you could put back in there. Looks like on one of the blocks a terminal has been torn off. On the tone control, it uses a standard cap which you can remove and should be able to read the value. Also check your resistors. They tend to drift, esp the ones in the power supply.

Also, as others may mention, there are high voltages in this set, can be around 400-600 volts. I recommend reading some other threads and maybe a book like "Practical Radio Servicing" by Marcus and Levy. There are a lot of You Tube videos to check out also. Don't go into this without some research. Do you have and know how to use an ohmmeter?

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
