Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate any help. Went ahead and installed the RF after the last rewind try. No reception but here are the voltages I got.
1st RF pin 1-2 14v 1-3 -1.7v
2nd RF 1-2 39.2v 1-3 -2.1v
3RF 1-2 13.2v 1-3 -2.1v
Dect (27) 1-2 6.4v 1-3 1.4v 1-4 2.1v
1st AF 1-2 39v 1-3 -1.9v
The two 71A 1-2 72v 1-3 -15v.
One thing I havent mentioned is that the 1st Audio Tnsmr had a open primary so I rebuilt it just likek Ron did with his model 87. (100k,1Meg resistors and a .1uF cap). Wonder if the resistor values are to high for my 86.
I do get a scratchy sound when I turn the tuner.
Please help, I am knee deep in the swamp

Oh yes, many bumblebees and loktal tubes.
The cutout is for the speaker. Here's a photo from a different set.
