I went back to it last night, and cleaned the bandswitches and volume pot. Fired it up and Walla!! we have loud and clear receptionIcon_clap

Although its tempting to stop, I would imagine that not replacing the paper caps would probably lead to a fatal problem along the way. Now I have the confidence to do it with all of the help recieved.

Thank you all!!
