1960 Zenith C845Y Issues
#6

Yeah, the reason why I haven't been on in a while was because I had some stuff come up recently that made it hard for me to do anything repair wise recently, such as losing my job I had held for 8 years suddenly without any notice because the employers decided they wanted to do away with the custodial department at the place I was working at and instead hire an outside firm to do the cleaning, so I had to watch my spending for awhile. Thankfully I have another job and it pays a lot better than my old job did I have the ability to work the same amount of hours I did at my old job.

Unfortunately this radio is turning out to be more of a hassle than I had counted on to repair, because its turning out to have a lot more issues wrong with it than just replacing the old wax paper caps was able to fix.
