I believe they're intact, all 5 of them. (There should be just 5 contacts right?). If I have time I try to open up the machine and take a photo of both sides of the slide switch.

I don't think it should be an issue with the hats not being in place as otherwise I would not have any output either with the switch in the AMP position surely (?).
It's definitely an issue with the upper board as i have not touched the lower Power Amp board and there is output from the Radio input jack.

Could it be another component? My instinct says no as when the slider switch is in the middle position the background noise is close to minimal, compared to when it's in the AMP position (hissy). The playback head measures around 76 ohms for both tracks. I think that's all fine.

Cheers
