Tom 12months ago I didn't know what an electrolytic capacitor was or did and forget about the differnt tubes and their purpose, 42 power output, 80 rectifier, etc. I don't know what your electrical expertise is so if you know that part and just mean the cabinet disregard this. I just got on line here and started asking questions about radio repair and received alot of help and spent many many hours reading the forum and studying radio repair books. Still consider myself a beginner.
I started with a philco 144 not the easiest to begin with and just got it playing last month.
