First Restoration
#4

Welcome Blind, nice to have new people to the hobby. I will attach the schematic link for you and others that will help. Your major project will be to find the speaker for your set and hopefully the cable and plug that are attached. You might wish to post a want to buy in the classified section here. That speaker is needed to even power up the radio as it is part of the power supply. Don't power it up! I would hesitate to proceed much further until you locate a good working one. You could measure the power and output transformer to make certain the "iron" is good. Coil measurements (there are lots) can also be measured to assure they are in good condition. All of this done with an ohm meter.
After this I would set back and see if you have any luck on the speaker.
Best, Jerry
