Great news!!!!
Tonight, I tried the radio, and, it plays... There are some bugs to overcome, but, it's playing!
I can't seem to get the adjustments for push buttons to work. I loossen the screw, tune it, etc., then, tighten it, but, it goes back to its' old setting...
Hmmmmm....
What could I be doing wrong????
Has nice fidelity. It acts like it either needs minor alignment, or, has a bad tube.
Eye is very bright, but, is barely moving at all.....
One dial light isn't working. Power transformer is great. After 40 min. of playing, it's still cool as a cucumber.
But, boy, do those power tubes smell hot!!
This set has excellent bass, and, good treble. Gets many stations. SW also works.
This baby is ALIVE!

"If it lights in the dark and leaves you with a warm glow it's tubes."
"Honey, did you warm the baby bottle on my 75 watt hi-fi again?"
"I left it somewhere, but, where?"
