If I were working on it I would order a clear set of schematics and info from Chuck Schwark for a few bucks. You will need to replace the paper caps and electrolytics (if it has any), check and/or replace resistors, check all transformers for continuity. If you are new to vintage radio redtoration, here's a good read from Phil Nelson.

Any 6.3 volt pilot light will work. I would use the brightest one I could find in my workroom. Be sure the dial is clean...RodB — 10:45 AM |
