Based on the Console cabinet and the tube layout I believe I have a Mode 630X. There are no labels on the radio and the one in the cabinet is illegible. I have just begun disassembling the radio and I have found that the Shadow Meter coil is open. I have never worked on one of these with the shadow meter, so I have a couple of questions.
Will an inoperative meter effect the radio operation? Can the coil be rewired? Are these coils even available? The Meter is a 45-2086 and the coil in it has a number 124620 printed on it.
