I had mentioned in post #2, page 1, this thread that the large Candohm resistor had a bad section.

So today I removed it:

Grinding off the ends of the rivets on the inside allowed me to remove the old Candohm. Unfortunately the rivets have become one with the chassis so I will have to drill out the remainder of the two rivets.

I took some time today to restuff the paper capacitors which will be going back into this radio.

I have seven of the original nine paper caps. Two were replacements and can be seen on the left in the photo above. One is a blue molded Cornell-Dubilier, and one is a Zenith (!) cap.

I had a few paper caps which I had previously restuffed, and selected two for use in this RCA. One is a generic no-name shell, and one is a Philco.

I still need to restuff the electrolytic cans, and build a new speaker wiring harness. Then comes the actual rebuilding under the chassis. I have already replaced all of the wires leading to its various dial lamps.
