Thank you for the info.

I do have the schematic for the set. This one is just so different from what I am used to that I am not too sure of myself.

I am also going to ask a dumb question....what is an scr? Are these the round transistor like units mounted to large heat sinks?

You are correct, the set does not use modules with the exception of the boards in the tuner circuits.

The quadrupler....what I am assuming to be the quadrupler (a black, square box about 4x4 and 1.5-2" thick. Reminds me of an old ford computer module from the 70's appears to be pristine as does the rest of the set.

I am sure I should go ahead and replace the e-caps since they ARE 40 years old.

Frustrating, aside from the vertical issue, it was working so well.

I realize it is basically the same as my CTC-21 etc, but with tubes, things are much more easily laid out and seems easier to work on. Probably just a silly perception.
