Kirk, there is a fellow who posts videos on YouTube that cover his radio restorations. He goes into a lot of detail on every step he takes, from first pulling off the knobs, reading a schematic, tracing out connections, replacing parts to final alignment. He explains everything in very simple language. When I first began messing with old radios, his videos were an invaluable source of information...

Here is a link to a series he did on a Philco 630B. It is a 35 part series, but it is very good.

He also posts on the forums, so if you have a question, you can ask him. Really good guy!
