Well guess I'm going to hold my breath and dive in. The 37-116X I serviced back in the '80s. Didn't removed the sub chassis. Did replace all the caps I could get to. Wouldn't know it after a few months the set died and I traced it back to a paper cap in the sub chassis that killed the LO. Replaced it we back in business. So I'm making a list and going to replace all the paper caps and resistors, only want to do it once. Now I've got three of these type of chassis two 37-116's and a 37-675. Maybe I'll be an expert on the darn things after I get those all redone. The 37-675 has a band switch problem, I like a challenge!
