Welcome to the phorum! I found several articles written for newbies such as myself at www.antiqueradio.org. It's called, "Phils old Radios". Phil is an excellent writer. I learned a lot from him.

There are also some great basic instructional videos on You Tube by Joernone. They were done for the beginner. Good luck with your radio. Tom
