Thank you Jerry-Ironically the later model 42 tube one plays very nice as is with no hum at all. There is a small printed circuit board in the middle underneath of the main chassis amongst all the tube wires. It looks like both have stereo on the RP but not AM or FM. Also the 1961 has a sealed speaker compartment but the 1958 one does not.

My 2014 radio goal is to get the 1961 all recapped and tuned up like new.

I have been thinking about downsizing my radios and only keeping one good one from each decade. I will have a real problem picking just one from the 1930's though.
