I would rather have one of these then a 41-316, more function, less gimmicks. The Mystery control sets are interesting but about 5 or 6 tubes are dedicated to the wireless remote system and do nothing for the radio itself. Rubber/gutta percha covered wire isn't a big deal to replace, it's more time consuming then anything else. The stuff that should definitely be replaced is the leads going into the IF cans as there is B+ running up one side. Thankfully they discontinued the practice of using this sort of wire on the power transformers after 1939.
