Your welcome.
Riders and Sam's schematics often were published during different revisions of a chassis and often only 1 or even neither will be a perfect match to a given example of a set...if restoring a set and a part don't match leave it as that value unless it looks like it was cobbled in as a replacement by someone inexperienced/sloppy... atleast until you rule out any other circuit faults.
One other thing to consider: sometimes a maker would put the same or nearly the same chassis in different cabinets and you could swap chassis between cabinets...if there was a model with similar chassis that would fit the cabinet that could have been done. In a given model year a maker could have 1-5 chassis numbers and 100 unique cabinet model numbers for the different cabinet options... with most of the cabinets sharing a chassis with many other models....this was more common in the 50s onwards, but there are 40s examples like the RCA 630TS, 630TCS and 8TS30 all having the same chassis.
