More than you ever wanted to know about the model 65 in a table model cabinet.

I don't know what you mean by "soup cans". The filter capacitors are contained in a large rectangular can, next to the power transformer. This radio does not use electrolytics, and electrolytics should not be used in its restoration. You can read about what I used on my blog.
