Voltmeter was inside.

Antenna center post seems to be broken/rotted where it meets the base underneath.

Some of the stuff I found inside the Radiola.
Extra battery hook-up card. Extra metal I.D. plate.

I saw a photo somewhere on the vast inter web of someone holding one that still had a tag. It's a condenser. No idea what value it's supposed to be yet. This is a big part of the fun to me, solving these mysteries.
