Just a follow up on my radio restoration, I just finished it up and it proudly sits in my liveng room. My wife just loves it.
A big thanks to fellow member for their advice and info. The radio sounds awesome and I wired in an aux input that I
use to connect to an Amazon Echo Input with a DPDT swich on the back. I can now tell Alexa to play 40s big band music.
Now I need to find another project...
