Jackson Bell model 68 Tulip
#1

Didn't know where else to go here.
I need help. I need a paper schematic, a good picture of original knobs, and, a rebuildable speaker for this set. It uses a Magnavox model 138 8" speaker. What can anyone tell me about this set, and, can anyone help me get parts for it?
I really want to restore it.
What year was this set made, and, what is the quality of this 8 tube radio?
I had replaced fried power transformer in it years ago, re capped it, and, put a temporary spkr. on it.
It would only play one station very weakly when I put my hand on secondary coil of first RF. And, that, same station all the way accross the dial.
What could be wrong?
Thanks.
