I have been doing some checking and found caps 23 and 24, both 100pf, are supposed to be inside the 2nd IF can but they are not there or anywhere else in the radio. On further investigation it looks like the caps are part of the 20A or 20B trimmers as there are several mica layers in there. I did change the resistor #21 (51K) with 50K. This probably is not the problem.
