Model 38-4 won't work. Help I'm a novice!
#2

The simple answer is no. What you will need to do is replace the filter caps in the power supply and the paper caps throughout the set. It looks like the rectifier tube has been replaced which concerns me a bit. I think first off I would check over the power transformer to make sure the HV windings are OK and the primary of the transformer isn't open. You will need a ohm meter to do this. Do you have one?

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
