Thankyou Texasrocker ,Arran and Dave.I should have mentioned their are no tubes in the chassis just the # 's marked nesr the sockets ,I am putting my own tubes in, nice globes including a blueglass 24 A!! that will look cool.Thanks for the advice Dave on removing grid caps because some of my other radios have these and may be very hard to remove.And yes sure enough that is my chassis (radio)on the Northernelectric radio site!!It is a tabletop metal radio not a console(low /high boy).Anyways I want to build my own console or box with a lid that lifts up so you can look at the radio and maybe use a large speaker and maybe a ported enclosure to bring up the volume and bass frequencies ,at least for now.If I do replace filter capacitors in power supply I want to use huge oil filled or paper caps not tiny electrolytics on this radio anyways if it will work.I like bulky weighty components ,very old world like FRANKENSTEIN movie H.G.Wells......etc. Chris
