Greetings everyone, today I just bought a 1927 Eveready (National Carbon) Model 1 TRF radio for $75 from Facebook Marketplace and it is in really nice shape yet except for some dry-rotted rubber wiring and a torn speaker cone on the original speaker to the radio.

It came with a complete set of tubes and its original power cord was cut.

the cabinet is solid oak and some other stuff.

I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with these early AC powered TRF Sets and working on them as I don't have much experience with them as this is my first TRF set that I've ever worked on, and the earliest radio I've worked on so far.

See pictures below.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
