Hi Ron. Thanks so much for spending all of this time on my questions. I really appreciate your interest and your help.
About code 222...these numbers are stamped in ink on the outside of my chassis, along with the letters OK. Perhaps this is just some sort of an inspection notation or something. I have studied the chassis and the schematics extensively I am sure it is a code 121.
The 2 electrolyctic cans that I mentioned are parts #'s 87 and 88. #88 is 30-2014, and #87 is updated with 30-2046 (this is the part number I finally found on the can). I had said earlier it must be 30-2067 after reading the service bulletin update, however, the part # I was able to read on the can is 30-2046 as you noted after your research. I was using 1 10uf 500 volt cap to replace this one, so I will have to get an additional 10uf 50 volt cap and connect as you noted.
The 2 30-4020 paper caps are green and have a black stripe on one end. In 1 location the striped end was attached to ground. In the other location the striped end was attached to the lead of the volume control and the other end to a resister. In both of these I attached the new caps with the black striped end positioned exactly as the old green paper caps were attached.
Ron, again thanks so much for the time you are spending with me on this. I will try to connect the electrolytic can 30-2046 correctly and see if that clears up my problem. I have checked and re-checked every other connection over and over again, so I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other thoughts about why the reception signal is not getting through. Thanks, Sonny
