update since last night ,
now things have changed.
I believe the radio is trying to tell me something more pointed now

When i power up, the radio is not safe to be on for longer than 20 seconds.

there is a 1000 ohm reisistor across the filter cap that gets hot enough to let off a certain smell we all know.

do you all think the filter caps are drawing down my speaker volume and such?
