I had a chance to check the radio and except for some faint speaker clicks when connecting power, the radio is dead. I touched my signal tracer probe to the base of the output transistor and got reception through the signal tracer; which, tells me that everything up to the output stage is at least working well enough to pass a signal. The germanium output transistor has an open B-E junction. The schematic calls for either a CK751 or GT751 (these numbers cross to a modern day NTE102). Now, let's hope the local parts house has one.
