I got a new electrolytic cap today-the one I reversed along with a new #47 lamp I smoked and while all seemed well I'm not getting any stations. There's little more than one or two very faint ones and they're garbled. I replaced the one tube I figured I had smoked, the 35Z5 rectifier and that didn't help. I found another 14B6 and replaced that one but still nothing. I can't replace the others as I'm fresh out of tubes for this model. I'll have to do more investigating.
