The tuner boards having all new electrolytics, I then turned to the power supply.

There are two electrolytics here; both were replaced with new 2200 uF caps. I noticed that one of the four rectifier diodes had been replaced at some time. So, as a preventative measure, I replaced all four. The .05 uF ceramic disc caps in parallel with each diode were also replaced.

Once these parts were replaced, I put the unit back together...
