Replaced the capacitors but all I get is a hum
#23

morzh,
I have a meter coming in the mail. I couldn't justify paying almost double in the store as opposed to online. When it comes on Tuesday I plan on testing everything I can to include the new capacitors I put in. I plan on starting with all of the resistors, then moving on to the capacitors, and finally finish with the coils as you mentioned. Once those are tested I will clean the bandswitch again. Thanks for the tips on the resistors. It would be nice to not have to disconnect an end if it can be helped.

Andrew
