Starting to lean towards rebuilding this radio. Should be a good instructional radio before I tackle anything really intricate. Was able to find a schematic for a Coronado model 623 in Riders. The tube layout is exact, but my radio has 6 pre-set buttons below the dial face that don't appear in any photographs I've been able to find. Knowing very little about this radio, I can't be sure if it is in fact a 623. Does anyone out there know if Coronado made unpublished changes to their sets without documentation? Also noticed that the schematic says my eye tube should be a 6G5, but mine was replaced with a 6N5. Any and all bits of wisdom about this set will be greatly appreciated. Take care, Gary.
