Nice little 37-52 and Other goodies today !!!
#8

The little Jewel is a nice little. It was advertised as the little set that sounds like a console. 6 tube w/o a rf amp. The extra tube is to increase the audio gain as it has a negative feedback loop. This is what makes it sound like console.
Common issues bad speaker(rubbing v.c.) It's mounted next to the two hottest tubes in the set.
Warped dial. Some hot water and a flat surface will help you get it back in shape.
And all of the other common issues that old sets have. Working properly it sounds like the Bose Wave radio of it's day!

I've made some knobs for them using bondo and a bic pen. worked well.
Nice hall!!!!
