[R-390] C-551 Replacement/AGC trouble?

[Dennis L. Wade]

     The hot glue concept or similar is actually what 
I'm considering doing with the new AGC capacitor.  
Lead length doesn't seem to be an issue since the two 
tubes involved aren't even next to each other.  I 
think just lifting the connections from the old cap 
and attaching the new one to one wall will work out ok.

     From looking at the AGC line, I think there may 
be some leakage somewhere as there doesn't seem to be 
enough there.  Any quick troubleshooting hints?
