PuhPow:
That's what I plan on doing. I found someone in OC who advertises on CL and you call him up and schedule an appointment where you can audition units he restored. He seems to do good work too.
The other person I know used to have a store in the OC area and now sells exclusively at the Rose Bowl Flea Market.
Back to the 39-7, I recapped the remaining paper caps and the radio survived. I also found out the previous owner was kind enough to rewire the power so that the switch comes first - yet there's no polarized plug.
I also found the safety cap. It's still original - a dark brown domino looking thing connecting one of the AC lines to ground. I assume I should remove this and replace it with a modern one?
