Thanks for the input Richard. I was a little concerned when I measured the AC voltage. I did connect a quick antenna and picked up some SW stations. Plan to listen tonight, I am sure there will be more later on. Once again, thanks for your help.

Now that this one is done I am looking for another project. I will be picking up a Zenith this week-end, a 6 S 556, with 6 A 05 chassis. (That is what I was told anyway.)

This is sort of fun, both restoring and then listening to these old radios.
