After y'all talked about the power transformer, I checked it out. Primary on A side terminals 1-2 is 5.4 ohms. 3-4 and 8-9 are .1 ohms 5-6 is 138 ohms, 6-7 146 ohms (both a little low).
I got around to soldering the power cable on, and the caps in the Bakelite box.
I sat awhile trying to figure out how I was going to replace the part 4 capacitor that's hidden under the wax antenna tubes. One end you can clip and solder a wire, the other you can't get to where it's attached to the A switch. Don't want to move the sub-chassis. Finally figured out there's a green wire under the switch that connects A2 to A10. A10 is much easier to reach. Might be longer, but I'm connecting it to A10.
