OK, I'll see how it plays as wired. Yes, I'll be restuffing all the caps and replacing out of spec resistors.

As I dug deeper into the set, I found more crumbly wire in the IF can so pulled it out. Good thing too as the mounting screw had broken away from the coil form which was flopping around loose. The resistor had drifted off spec too.

Now I'm really glad I bought a multi-colored assortment of wire a while back Icon_smile
