Thank you everyone for your help. I changed out all the caps. I did not mess with any of the resistors. It just goes to show that a cap can be bad even if it looks good. The final three I ended up changing out showed no signs of leaking or dry rot. They were hard to get to and looked fine that is why I left them. The snapping noise is no longer. I Changed out the caps and tested the radio. It works great. I will try to attach a pic of it. Thanks again.
