Hi guys,
I managed to get the wire clipped where the hardest cap to change was connected to the bandswitch. But I couldn't fit a soldering iron in to reach the little hook I formed on the end of the wire. However, I accidentally slid some of the insulation on the other wire connected to that same point on the switch, leaving a soldering-iron-reachable solder point for the new cap. The set just got done with its recap and sounds great, works on all three bands. I found an open 20 K resistor in the voltage divider to the RF/converter/IF screens; replacing it gave me ten times the sound from the set. Still, the shadow meter doesn't open up much with no signal; something's still giving me low plate current. Guess I'll check the rest of the resistors and tubes, verify operating voltages. and this should be resolved without too much trouble...
