[MRCA] R-392 operation/maintenance query

Among other projects, I'm attempting to work the bugs out of an R-392.  
Typical of these units, the guts are very clean but many caps are now 
looking like woolly caterpillars. However, my question is this:  The 
receiver operates acceptably well ONLY in the NET position.  The BFO, 
CAL, all functions are, or appear, normal.  In the NORMAL, SQUELCH, and 
LIMITER positions, the rig is dead, audio wise.  The S-meter /appears/ 
to still move normally, however, indicating that part of the receiver is 
functioning.  I don't have a book yet and the BAMA split schematics are 
hell to try and use.  Reading the manual, it really doesn't tell the 
functionality of the NET position.  I would assume it keeps the receiver 
un-muted to zero beat the T-195?  If that's the case, maybe some muting 
relay is being held up?  Any thoughts will be appreciated....
