Knight R-100A Receiver dropped dead while listening, and hoping to get
back on the air if only with a "nostalgia" station. The fuse had
blown. No previous problems. I replaced the fuse, turned it on,
the dial lights glowed dimly for a couple of seconds, long enough for
me to say "that's not good". Then the fuse blew again.

Preliminary checks don't show anything visibly shorted.

Check supply caps. Check rectifiers.
