I just looked the model # of the set, I remember! It's an RCA model 66BX.
The audio coupling capacitor is a .002 and not a .001 and I don't see a 2M 2W resistor used. It's only $0.60 worth of parts and if they weren't replaced, it's only petty larceny. The tubes are a different story and if the old ones were returned to the customer.
The long explanation of the service procedure stating realignment seems a little extreme.
