Use your Ohmmeter and find the two wires with 460 Ohms across the two (or pretty damned near it) and connect those to the proper places indicated on the schematic (one to the # 80 rectifier's cathode and one to the audio output transformer's primary center tap).

The voice coil / humbucker wires (the two with MUCH lower resistance) will go to the output transformer's secondary.....

There, see, I did your homework for ya........ Your welcome
I had seen part of the link that he had posted and I thought he was posting the link to the digital copy of the Riders version of the service data for this radio chassis which I already have a physical copy of which didn't provide any useful information as far as giving any voltage or resistance readings or any blowup diagrams of each individual speaker wire connection, that's why I responded the way I did, I wasn't trying to be mean or rude to him, I just thought that he was giving a link to something I already had a physical copy of which had proven to be useless already to me.

I apologize if my comment came off as being ungrateful or mean in anyway, it certainly wasn't my intention.

By the way, what is the source of that service data? It's definitely not Riders or Beitman's (which is basically the same info as in Rider's) because the service data in Rider's was not this detailed.
