my 37-61 project...
#16

I have been continuing work on the radio slowly but surely. I noticed that the 3 wires in the speaker harness were becoming frayed and worse for wear, bare in fact in one place from handling and moving around as I have worked on the chassis, so I replaced them I had suitable white, green, and green with white tracer wire hanging around, albeit with plastic rather than cloth insulation, but I wound up a harness of it and replaced the 3 original wires of the speaker harness. I have also begun to replace parts on the terminal strip side of the chassis I checked all the resistors, and have found they are all within 10%, well better than their 20%
ratings, so I left them. I replaced the 2 paper condensers, and one grid cap wire, and that was all I needed to do.

So, now I still have to buy some SPT2 18/2 and replace the power cord, re-install the tuning section, wire the speaker back up, and I can begin testing and see where I have screwed things up, LOL.
