OK, it is speaking nw too. Good, two radios today.

Have to wait or that capacitor as the peak volts across that on I have there now exceed the 100V rating.

It is a TRF, so not a whole lot of alignment if any.

Tried alignment...not much can be done, just tuning gang padders. Given the dial precision don't even matter much.
Well, it tunes in and speaks.

I can see in this photo he is dreaming of cabinets.

I know what you need, Kirk - you need to restore a Mae West Emerson when you out.
Keep picturing it (or Mae herself) in your head, this will give you strength to recover.

The woman

And here she features the outfit that inpired Count de Sakhnofsky to design the cabinet.
