morzh, thanks for the replay but when I open that thread at the very last page it says the thread is closed.
RodB, I will look closer but in the meantime, I will attach a photo of what I see. It also appears that no other
wires were previously attched to pin 5. Also, I just fountService bulletin 253 for code 121. amoung the verbage, it says "The first IF Transformer, part No 32-2274 has a stabilizing winding which is placed in series with the suppressor grid of the 6K7 I.F. tube. The short or yellow colored lead is connected to the ground lug and the long lead to the suppressor grid."
It looks to me like the mention of the yellow wires are rplaced by the black thin insulated ones. There is a second one of the thin black insulated wires also going into the IF transformer and when I checked. it is connected to ground.(you maybe able to also see it in the attached photo) The reason it looks like there was solder work on that pin 5 is because insulation was flaking off the wire and so I Replaced the wire.
