The radio is a bit of a basket case. Disassembly has begun. First problem I've found is the power transformer. Half the HV winding is open. I'll either have to rewind it or place an ad in the wanted section. This is the first PT problem I've run into (other than having to rewire because of rubber wire or brittle cloth wire.
Since the coil shields are impossible to remove and re-install, re-plating this chassis has been ruled out. It will be painted.
