Ok! Today I got my variac, so I powered up slowly. The good news is, no smoke and nothing else visually seems to be an issue. The fuse I installed didn't blow.
The bad news is, it produces nothing but a steady hum, the volume knob appears to have no effect on it, and the display lamp doesn't light.
Where would you guys recommend I start checking? I have not replaced anything in this except caps and resistors, so everything else is original (including the long, tubular resistor).
