Here is the bottom of my Viking II. There was prior work done in there by a VERY good tech that I am happy with. The cap replacements are excellent with quality components. I plan to do the following:
1. The C9 oil cap looks dark around the terminals but is not leaking. Should this be replaced or are they normally OK if not leaking?
2. Replace the paper filter caps.
3.. Check/replace the 68K/1 W resistor in the buffer section.
4. Check/replace all resistors in the mic audio area and under the 6AU6.
5. Check/replace the 100 ohm resistors on the 807 tube and the 22 ohm plate resistors.
6. Clean the band switch as best able.
