I took the set to my friend's house for him to look it over. After checking the diode, and other items, he noticed a wire on the back of the on/off switch was broken. As soon as we fixed that the set worked again!
The original fusistor is broken, one of the leads broke off right where it goes into the body. Right now I have just a one amp fast blow fuse taking its place. You had mentioned placing a 4.7 ohm resistor in series with the fuse. How do I determine the correct wattage? I tried a 1 watt resistor and it blew right away. Can I just use the set with only the fuse?

Thanks again for all of your help. I posted a picture of the broken wire my friend found.
