Emerson model 25 restoration

[charokeeroad]

I picked up an Emerson model 25 last week and decided to restore it. I ordered a couple new knobs that match and I'm starting to do the restoration.

I was able to pick up a schematic from the web and I started photographing and identifying the components top and bottom. I found a couple components that look like they shouldn't be there.

First off two 8mf caps attached to the speaker output coil. One attached to each of the coil leads and the other end attached to ground. They aren't on the schematic. the two shiny blue components in the bottom left of the picture.

I found another component that has both ends attached to ground. That doesn't seem right. It's the one wrapped in black tape.

The "Mite" looks like it could be C7. One end of it is in the right place but the other end looks like the last restorer was going to attach to ground. It had a lug soldered on it and was in place to be attached to the chassis with and existing nut and bolt.

The last one is show in the pictures as a long red, what looks like a wire wound around a solid core with a green dot. Not on the schematic.

could use some feedback maybe I'm missing something.
