Bought 39-72
#1

Newbie here, I have acquired a Philco 39-72 and a Zenith 5r-312. I am just educating myself . What is a source of a variac? Also, how about the three batteries that are going to be needed for the Philco, are they still available? The antenna has some insulation falling off, only from the loop to the connections, how to correct that?

Some photos attached, any comments are welcome!

Note from site admin: Sorry, but the photos which were attached to this post are no longer available.
