terry,
I dont have a signal tracer, yet, I'll be lookin around for one though. Are there any other tests I can do, other than just replacement?
I did open up the IF cans, very delicate stuff in there, those internal caps are very simple, and exposed to the air. It looks like a piece of paper riveted between the plastic housings. If were to replace them, what should I go with? silver mica?? What pF?
BTW the stupid thing is still playing this evening, about seven hours now....
