I DID IT !!!!!!

The radio turns on and I'm getting stations.

For weeks, after recapping and all that, I couldn't figure out why there was sound but no reception. It appears the phono pushbutton was stuck in the ON position. Unsticking it did it. I should say I think that's what did it.

Anyway, it's been a fun and illuminating journey. You can imagine my joy. Back in March I knew absolutely nothing. Nada. Zilch.

Thanks to everyone who patiently answered all my dumb questions. Rest assured I will be back with more!
