Mark,
First, its a good idea to replace the caps. Second, I have a BC-794
along with the manual, (the BC-779,-794, and -1004 were of the same design
only difference is the band coverage). I have a good supply of audio iron.
Let me look at the schematics and I'll see if I have available.

Subject: [AMRadio] WTB : PP 6F6 Output Transformer for BC779
In the process of restoring a BC779, I replaced a bunch of caps and a
several
resistors. I also noticed that there were two "tar stalagtites" forming
underneath the audio outout transformer.
Upon power up lo & behold, there was very little audio out and the 6F6's
were
truly hot enough to fry eggs on.
I pulled the 6F6s and hooked a pair of headphones to the secondary of the
audio
driver transformer and began listening to some SWBC with just a foot of wire
on
the antenna.
So, anyone have a spare 6F6 PP to 8ohm to part with ?
tnx
