I've got the RF section out and it sure smells burned around V205, 206 
and 207 and that appeared where the smoke was coming from besides the 
wire. I measured each tube in it's socket to pin B J208 and all the 
filaments appear normal. No tubes, no resistance, no measurable shorts. 
Trouble is I've got those huge orange drop caps in that osc section and 
they cover everything in that osc section. I'll have to pull them out to 
measure/see things in there.

This is an EAC and it doesn't have Teflon wires.

Opps, I see a burned wire over going to V204.
