Nice set Bob! I like those small depression era mantel sets and I have an Emerson similar to yours, but I think yours is a little fancier cabinet. I also have a neat Fada of the same style I got from Kirk a while back.

Bob, the radio is AC/DC so using the capacitor to drop the AC voltage would be the same as using the resistive line cord on AC
