AK Model 42 Transformer Ground?

[Winky Dink]

Thanks to all who had the patience to help me track down the culprit. I'm posting this photo so others with limited experience might come across it and benefit from it. The lesson is, "Don't use steel wool near electronic equipment." This problem resulted from my use of steel wool two feet away from the set.



I think this set's going to work beautifully when I reassemble it. I'll do one last post when it's complete.
