Now I've done it...One Bucket List set FOUND!
#36

I have an original ad copy from Radio News showing there was supposed to be an MP VII. Perhaps this is
one of those developed as a prototype. Also, note all the red paint on the settings. Many of the tubes also have that red
swab-I figured it was just someone's notes from a restoration BUT does this one look recapped etc ?

Perhaps the red was from lab testing of the new design and proof of special test lab settings. Who really knows.

I will ask Don Hauff in Minnesota - He is considered to be the MS expert.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
