Replaced the capacitors but all I get is a hum
#28

I have began to check the resistors in this radio and I may need some help with this. Is it normal for a resistor that is supposed to be 56 ohms to read at 961,000 ohms? I'm pretty sure that I am doing this correctly, but that seems awfully high to me. Most of the resistors that I have checked so far don't seem to be corresponding with what they are supposed to be at. All I am doing is using a multimeter on the resistance setting and putting a probe on each side of the resistor to get my reading. I have a resistor that is supposed to be at 10 ohms and the multimeter will not detect it.

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM

Maybe this is starting to make some sense in my hard head.  Is this why the wire in question was not in the great Ron Ra...georgetownjohn — 04:34 PM
