Hey Rich, I'm interested in that bucking transformer of yours.
On mine, after about half an hour you feel the top of the cabinet being warmer than it should...
What transformer did you use? It's a great idea.
On my radio, I had previously done the power and AM stages recap. I added a fuse, but really should install the Y safety caps...
I recently acquired a 1953 voice of music changer to replace the stock changer that I had given to another phorum member several years ago (it was shut, stucked, missing the stylus and partly rusted)
I know it isn't original, but a likely aftermarket upgrade, and I use it quite much at 33/45 as I don't own any 78s.
On mine, the FM and phono are faint. I need to crank up volume to the max.
I assume you don't have that issue?
