I just recapped and changed some out of tolerance resistors on this 124 Crosley. I always bring up on variac with amp scale in line.
Most of the radios I have done read about .5mA on 3amp scale.
This one is reading .85mA seems high to me.
Does anyone know if this would be a normal range for this radio?
I was at 120v on variac setting. It does play pretty well but I turned it off because of high amp reading. Thanks
