Well guys I finally got it going after I replaced the caps with what I thought should be the right ones. It sure is cramped inside the chassis. I did not replace any of the resistors [as was suggested]. It tunes in stations very well and from far away..No hum and all is well .. BUT I did have to replace all four wires going to the speaker because they were shorting out... What a job
I would like to thank you all for the help,even if I did not follow all the instructions concerning the resistors.. I am still at the learning stage about this ... but it's fun
thanks again.... Dan[Image: http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm405...dio007.jpg]
