I have a 39-55 remote set that I have had for about 20 years. When I first purchased it I got is working and the radio and remote control were very good performers. At that time however it was not yet common to do a full recap and it needs it now. The main problem that I have with it now is that I can not turn it on. When I hit the switch the volume motor does not turn. Is there a starting capacitor for this motor? I see a 30mfd x 30 volt cap in the circuit and it looks to be a 30 volt AC cap but the schematic that I have does not specify this. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Steve

BTW, Ron, I will still get you better pictures of that 1942 remote control. I just have not had the time for the last few weeks.
