Did the oscillator test. Got opposite results. The functioning radio is the one that got affected. I did get the delco somewhat aligned. However, It did produce magic smoke last night. Audio has always been low when the control was at full, Didn't think it could be more than one of the caps on the volume control. Well, just listening to Man cow on it this morning, My power supply started to really hum and something under the PCB started to smoke. She kept playing though. Shut it down and turned it back on later. Nothing but a faint attempt through the speaker. So I began to look. No obvious damage. Started checking resistors and some were out of range but not bad. One that is a white box and is labeled "Fuse Resistor" has no continuity whatsoever. Jumped it and she started playing again, However, The choke on the back started smoking. So I shut it down and put it all back together. Looked at the schematic I have, Not much help. It's number 59 in "Most-Often-Needed". Doesn't list a value or anything. Same with most parts. Just numbers. Maybe I'm reading it wrong? If any of y'all have any insight I'd really appreciate it. This is currently my only working tube radio. Haven't got the money to do the Emerson and the Silvertone turned out to be a basket case. Sorry for taking so long to get back to this, Been busy with college and work.
