Rookie with Philco 38-C4 issues

Thanks Radiorich

I see from the photo with the symbols on how to determine the + and - ends of the caps. Thanks for that info, I didn't know that and I can see the difference between 64 and 64A. Replacing the electrolytics are the first thing I'm doing and I appreciate the info about the blocks as well. I have watched a few videos on how to remove and replace the caps and it was on this site is where I read that you should use safety caps in certain areas.

I just want to clarify which yellow circle were you referring too for the - connection for the 10 mfd cap because I have two yellow circles on the photo. Looking at the schematic it appears that the - connection goes to the resister strip but I just want to make sure. 

Cheers, Hamilton
