Hi experts,

I have a Philco 39-45 that was given to me. The cabinet is in excellent shape but I'd like to get the radio working. 7 of the 9 tubes still have covers on them but I wasn't able to try the thing out because the AC plug had been cut from the power cord. Rather than risk a blowout, I thought I'd have an expert give it a check-up. Is there anyone in the Southern California area who would able to help? I live in Thousand Oaks, in Ventura County. Thanks. (photos attached)

P.S. I ordered a set of push buttons for the front but am still in need of the little red pilot lamp.

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