I just got an earlier version of that set, a TV5-307u. The set is different, with all controls being on the front panel, and the metal cabinet being more like the ones on the earlier 60's sony portables. I would reccomend replacing all the electrolytic caps on the plugin modules. Thats all it took for mine to come beck to life. Best part is, they are all common value low voltage caps, available at any Radio Shack.
