detector coil replacement on 32 Volt Delco Farm Radio
#6

Success! Got it working again. Thanks, Terry. Much appreciated. The radio was a bit of a surprise, to me at least. There are no electrolytics, and the ground wire doesn't go directly to chassis ground, but goes to a .25 mfd cap first...the largest value cap in the set. Odd too that for a 32 volt farm radio they'd have two 6D6's and two 48's. Seems like a lot for a little one band 6 tube set!  But it turned out decent. It was a $20 purchase and was in filthy shape when I got it. Full of mud and mouse nests. Mickey had quite a feast on the cloth wires too!
