Yes, I found that out. I kept singing nearby wires.

Soldering to the chassis, do you mean like to tube sockets? The hint that someone suggested in my thread about the RCA TV, about making a pigtail kind of loop and then soldering; well, it seems that's what was done in the original manufacture... As soon as I get the solder to melt and I tug on the bad cap, it comes off but then is entangled in a little knot where the pigtail is.

I think I'm going to have to hold off on any other work on the radio until I get one of those lamps with a magnifier... i had a horrific headache after my miserable effort on the radio.
