The caps have been replaced, as well as a bunch of resistors that were either open or had increased in value. Even after all that, one channel was still dead. More testing turned up a defective driver transistor, an NTE102, which is a PNP germanium device. The output transistors are silicon and made by RCA. The drivers are germanium and made in Japan. Some of the resistors look Japanese, as well.
