Default Uniden Grant XL help needed please

Hi -

I just got my hands on an old Grant XL and it looks like it's had a hard life.
Can someone tell me the correct transistors for the Driver, Final, and
pre-driver? Also, when I look at the inside with the SO239 jack facing away
from me, I see the Final on the left, the driver on the right, and then the
pre-driver hanging sideways on the back far off to the right? Is that the
correct order?

I'm trying to go from memory back when I had one of these rigs and it isn't
going so well :-) I saw the VCO can was messed with when some idiot put in
channels so I adjusted it and got the radio to receive and transmit now. But,
there's no power output on the wattmeter. However, when I put my Walkie-Talkie
nearby it got receive. So, I am convinced one of the three is shot; final,
driver, pre-driver. I have seen that two of those three have been replaced
previously...hmm.

Any help?

Thanks in advance!

Final = 2SC1969C
Driver = 2SC2166 or 2SC1308
Pre-driver = 2SC1973
AM Regulator = 2SD1135 or 2SC1419
Voltage Regulator = MB 3788

Go hear to see a block diagram of your unit. It helped me out lots trying
to bring my ol' faithful back to life...
