Well, I think I will replace that 200 uF cap (C30) this weekend. I'll probably end up cutting the leads of the original, and making my own "quigs" to attach the new cap to the original leads. I will (finally!) be putting together another parts order, as well, so that I can wrap up this 700 and get ready for the next one - a 170 that is mostly working, but it looks like someone spilled some soda (or something) on it, which got into it as well and on part of the PC board that includes the amplifier and power supply.
In addition, I will also change the wiring back to original on the function switch, so that when the unit is in the FM Stereo position, it will be muted when not tuned to an FM Stereo signal.
