I finished replacing the electrolytic and paper caps in the set and replaced a couple bad tubes. It is playing on AM and I got the phonograph working but no luck with FM yet. I will revisit that a little later.

I am also looking for the correct dial scale. At some point in the past it was removed, and a blank glass pane with an inkjet printout (incorrect too) dial scale was substituted. I have been unable to locate a replacement through any of the parts suppliers listed on this and other websites. Does anyone have an extra or know of where I could purchase one?
