Replaced the Power Transformer due to an open center tapped secondary winding. Replaced the output transformer due to the primary winding being open. Replaced all paper caps and still not the very least of sound from the speaker. Received the new 6V6GT output tube in the mail today. Installed it, turned on the power and.... I HAVE NOISE!! I don't know if folks who can't repair or fix anything achieve the same wave of success and satisfaction from the most basic and minimal measurement of success. But, for a person like me it is a true sense of joy.  Applied an audio tone to the grid of newly installed tube. Instead of silence I was rewarded by a nice, not strong, rather a healthy tone from the speaker. Still much to find and replace. No response, just noise on AM but did tune in a very weak FM station.  So by my standard it is no longer a mantle piece decoration as it had been for decades. It's once again a radio.
