If that first lytic after the rectifiers has been changed (I'd recommend the one on the other side of the choke be changed too) you can short the two thermistor terminals together until you find another thermistor...You loose degaussing and the transformer has less of a cushion if one cap is still shorted, but it is a valid workaround (in sets where all is good but the thermistor techs would often short a dead thermistor as a temp workaround).
