The most incompetent repair job I have ever seen (on anything; I usually do toy trains). Looks like the old caps and a resistor were cut out and the replacements twisted on. I have now properly soldered most of the connections (one or two more to go.) I will give it quick try when done, and then order new replacements for the lot, as well as the remaining original caps. Will check back in when done. Again, my thanks for all your advice!
