Those old capacitors will get you every time!
Re-stuff them and it should solve your problem.
A quick check with an ohm meter should identify the offending cap.

Are there significant differences between that & the BC-946-B (SCR-274-N series)?

Might anyone have a manual for this receiver?  It's the ATA BC Band receiver.
I received one recently.  After a visual inspection I applied power and got lotsa smoke!
