Thank you Ron for your input. I re-checked the third IF (50), which is the one closes to the power transformer and it definitely only has 3 wires, the others have more. It does not look like any were detached in the past. I know that a mouse did get into this chassis long ago, and I had to reattach the braided wires that are on the coils (near the push buttons), but all that I get is a low volume scratch sound and the volume control does not change. Would an open IF or antenna coil result in no volume at all?. I do not want to spend time on all those wax caps if I it is a complete waste of time. Should I be checking voltages, which I have never done before.
