Terry, I did study the schematic a little more and #34 is a bakelite with a 200 ohm and a cap, also labeled as #34. The radio did the same thing prior to restuff so I think I need to look a little longer along that line towards the IF. You have given me some ideas and thanks. I understand you are looking at the right schematic.

PS Aaron sorry when I indicated you were looking at the 51, I should have said the 50. The 51 and 52 seem to be the same and both have a center tap at ground.
