Yes R3. The wire I pulled was one side of the resistor. So the 7.5K resistor is in there now with one side of the 10K still connected. I wanted to verify the 10K was reading 10K. It was real close. Yes all caps have been changed including micas (domino style including C7). If there is a cap in the osc can I did not do that. I used 5% silver micas. The problem was happening prior to changing the micas. The parts list shows two .002 caps. I saved the old parts, one is a mica and the other is paper so I'd say C7 is not in the can also I can see it in the radio where it is in the schematic.
It is confirmed the radio craps out on SW too.
