A friend gave me an old RCA advertising display. It is a sign, about 3' x 4' and a little portable RCA radio that attaches to the sign. The radio is a model 6-bx-6. It's an AC/DC set with a plastic cabinet. I opened it up to see what I'm in for and it sure is tight in there!

I had to order a 100mf cap for it. It has a 4 part e-cap - 20, 20, 40 and 100. I thought about using 2 50s, but I don't think they'll fit.

I can probably get by without a schematic, but it would sure be nice to have one. Nostalgia Air doesn't have the one I need. Anyone know of any sites that carry RCA schematics (for free of course)...??
