Hi Guys,

Thank you all for the welcome & advice - I will heed it all & not run the baby until it has the parts replacement & health check up!

Is there an owners manaul for the radio?
Yup - I am lost on most of the electronics details, how about I start with a few of the them.

Looking on the cabinet tag for the 6X5GTG location I have a RCA (replacement?) strait tube marked 148; so good to say no death ray recatifer tube installed?

There is a small sticker on the back of my electrical chassis "M 71306" - would this be a unit serial number?

Is there a recommended source for the replacement wiring?

Agree on taking photos, I should know better - leassions learned with cars.

Kinda funny my dad is slipping just a bit - I asked him he he wanted to take the tubes to the drug store for testing (as he did with me as a kid), he was ready to go... Opps
