Interesting set on several levels. Interesting that it uses a bias cell for the 6Q7 grid. Wonder why they did not use the field coil as part of the power supply filter, putting it across the B supply instead? Did they get better flux that way? First time I saw an AC-DC radio use 2 chokes.
Good luck with the restoration, the radio is a looker.
