1936 RCA 5T
#16

OK Well I took a really long break from this radio and I had acquired several volumes of original Riders Manuals and I took a look at the original Riders for this Radio and I was able to figure out that the power switch was indeed wired up incorrectly and also apparently when I replaced the original filter caps I accidentally wired in one of the replacement filter caps in backwards and I have now been able to get the radio to work correctly without blowing a breaker, unfortunately because one of the caps was wired in backwards I'll have to order a new 22 MFD 450 VDC capacitor to replace the one that nearly blew up.
