Texasrocker,
you are right, someone has worked on this radio before--this has what confused me. I thought the schematics/code was wrong--i am comparing a Sam's & Rider's for this radio. Am i right tho on the electrolytic--15 mfd, 160 V, code red, black is neg? I don't think this one should have been in that area, as the metal band that held it was bent & twisted. I am not sure where the safety caps go--so am thinking of just getting compacitors that match the mfd on the remaining caps & put it back together, this is probably why the phono does not work.
