A failed electrolytic was the problem. Radio up and running now. My only issue is lots of noise which sounds like interference when moving across the am band. It makes it difficult to hear weaker stations. Also loud popping when switching between bands. I have tried moving wires around under chassis with no improvement. Any suggestions, as always thanks so much for the help. Gary
