I just finished a recap on my Montgomery Ward/Airline 94-BR1534A. It now works great on AM and FM. My only issue is a slight buzz from the power transformer. It doesn't effect the sound from the radio, but at very low volume I can still hear it. The transformer gets warm but not hot. Most of the radios I work on are AC/DC so I'm not sure if I have a problem or not.
