Replaced all electrolytics. I guess they didn't survive 44 years of baking in the Arizona heat. Works much better now, you can actually tune stations. AM kinda works, I don't care about AM, but also I don't have a real antenna for testing. Sound quality is kinda crap. Either it needs to be in the case for shielding, or a real antenna, or maybe something else is still out of whack.

I'm thinking of adding an aux port and injecting the audio at 35 and 36 right after the mpx decoder. Is it ok to leave the decoder's output floating?
