Ok, I'm all moved in, and ready to continue work on this radio.
As I said in a previous post, I blew out the 32K resistor which is part #61 (on the 121 model). I’m concerned that I may have hooked it up incorrectly? I was very careful to only remove one part at a time and then replace that part before moving on to the next part, however, there is a group (#40 on the 121 model) of electrolytic capacitors that I replaced and had to use the schematic as to where to place the connections, I think that’s where I made my mistake.
Thank God I took several before and after pictures, I just looked and I should be able to replace the #61 “Properly” and I’ll let you know how it goes.
Thanks!
