Picked this one up a few weeks ago alone with 2 others. Looks to be some kind of a kit. Tubes are 35Z5, 35L6 12SQ7, 12SK7, 12SA7, an 12SK7. No info as to who made the thing not even a tube layout. The 2 IF cans look post WWII, 2 screws on top for adjustment and app one inch square and app 4 inches tall. Cabinet is metal and sprayed with a metallic blue green paint both inside and out. With a strip on metal on the sides and front with small holes painted gold. The size of the cabinet is close to a Hallie S38C. So without a sch I started to work on the thing replaced the filter caps 30uf and 50uf and all paper caps. tested resistors a few were bad 30-50% high they were replaced. Found a small e cap 25uf at 25 volts going from the power switch to pin 8 of the 35L6 never seen that before. Turned on the set nothing started with the 35Z5 and found a open heater replaced tube and the set started playing the pilot light was out replaced the number 47 bulb. Painted the cabinet today will try and post pictures in the next few days. Without a sch have like 14 pages of notes and drawings.
