First of all, many thanks to Rob and drh4683. You obviously went through a great deal of troble to remove the bottom of your set, and photograph it! That helped a great deal. I really do enjoy this list.

First of all I've only got a digital VOM, so there will be no needles whipping to the end of a scale! There is no RX1 either. Can I still test with this meter? Do I test the capacitor voltages acroos the component (AC) or to ground, as in DC?

I didn't bother testing anything, because I might have found something visually. The cap circled in yellow is loaded with melted wax. This is bad, I assume. Also note the cap circled in green, which does not show up in your chassis...???

So where do I get this part, and which is the correct way to test the others? I've got a "real" electronics store just down the street, might I find it there???
