At some point in its history, someone replaced the notoriously lacking bridge rectifier with an EVEN SMALLER ONE! The resulting heat was enough to melt the hot glue supporting nearby caps which ran across the board and out the tube socket. Glued the tube to the socket and the socket to the board. Also toasted the nearby channel switching relay. Wave soldering is why we can't have nice things around here!
