The capacitor has now been replaced. =)

Until I get a working vibrator, can I test the radio by applying a low AC voltage on the input of the transformer (where the vibrator usually is), and slowly increase the voltage until I get the acquired anode voltage from the rectifier tube? And also applying the 6 volt DC that the radio needs to operate.
