Checked the fubes; all are good. I replaced the 80 rectifier tube as I have a few and this one was a bit in the "?" territory.
The power switch was open after 20 clicks, so I used Trolmaster. The thread is different so it could only catch half a thread but it locked. I used Deoxit D (red) contact cleaner. Most of it escaped but what little penetrated did the job and the switch worked on the first try and then on every click.
The speaker, as I stated before, has bad transformer.
I have two working speakers, one 20 and one 90 SE so I used the latter. It has some cone repar or separation but I figured it would work.
So, I powered it up, the voltage climbed nicely, and in 20 seconds I was listening to the Jersey Shore radio.
Now the speaker repair and alugnment.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
