The patient has a pulse! Radio 2 is sitting up and talking. In the photo below you can see that I have patched in the new lytics and replaced R8 and C23. You can see their burned-out hulks at the bottom left. That was caused by the shorted lytic and maybe helped by the B- to chassis short. I also rough aligned it and it is performing quite well. Gonna do the line dropping resistor and led changes. Right now it's running off the variac at 110Vac. May leave the special cap and the other paper caps alone. Cabinet may be left original for comparison.
On radio 1, I have installed the bypass inductor. No obvious difference but that is the factory design, so. I also completed the 4th staining and final touch-up and
DG gave me the go-ahead to topcoat it after it dries.
