Well, I found the problem - wire has come undone (see picture). If anyone could help me in telling me where to attach it, I'd be grateful. It's probably really simple for this crowd, but I don't want to connect the wrong wire and screw up the unit forever. Thanks.

that is a flat 300ohm antenna lead in wire and that will not cause the unit not to turn-on.It solders to the black coaxial wire in front of it or it could go to the screw right above it..There is no voltage on those terminals and no chance of hurting the unit because it is simply the antenna connection.This isn't your problem tho.
Do you have a voltmeter? Put your meter on AC volts and see if you have 120v coming into the cord that is riveted into the back you pulled off the unit.

It wouldn't hurt for you to check that fuse.

I hate to be a party pooper, but if you can't tell the difference between that wires are connecting a coax antenna and wires to a power supply, should you really be messing with the voltages that are present in a tube console?

We all have to start somewhere. I think he may have a bad cord that may have gotten stressed when it was moved and made just enough contact to work that one time after he brought it home.

If it is just a cord, that shouldn't be hard, but as soon as you get past the power transformer, you can get zapped by the filter caps even when the unit is off. Of course, bleeding off the power is no big deal and his are probably not charged, but you have to know that you need to do. I do it every time. Why take chances.
