My new Ranger gets stranger by the minute.

Inspecting the modulator section, not only are the tubes missing but the cathode pin (8) has never been soldered to. As far as I can tell,it should be connected to 8 on the other socket.

Furthermore, two of the pins on this socket are missing and they are not unused pins. The sockets are riveted in so installing a new one would be a pain to say the least.

Question: can new pins be inserted into such a socket to repair it? If so, where would one get replacement pins?

Thanks,

js
