Yup, the radios, their components, and their caretakers are just getting older every day.

I've been replacing carbon resistors as a matter of course in a restoration for several years now. In recent years, I've started automatically replacing common value micas (100 pF, 250 pF) as well.

I think this problem will only get worse over time...
