I have a Model 40-180 that someone previously had worked on. I have recapped and replaced many of the resistors that were out of tolerance. Replaced much of the rubber wiring. When I turn it on and press any of the presets or the dial button I get distortion in the speaker similar to filter caps being bad. They are good. The schematic lists the output transformer as having a resistance of 450 ohms. Mine is 3.3K ohms disconnected from the circuit. The P/N is 32-8053N. My question is can this be causing the distortion and is there a replacement equivalent?
