Welcome to the Phorum. Icon_wave

That really does look like a 42-1008 with the (sort of) rare and unique Beam Of Light phonograph. That was the first tube radio I ever repaired. It was a learning experience, and I've been fixing electronics professionally for over 25 years.

Every minute was worth it. I have the old radio bug now. Icon_e_geek

Though nowhere near an expert, I'm willing to help with any questions you may have.
It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
