Tnx Nick, That's a really nice looking 37-116 122. I can attest to using mylar caps in the power supply. I used some small electrolytics in a model 87 about 2yrs ago. With regular use the caps lasted about 6 months and then shorted. Going to use mylars this time!! Have fun doing the restoration you have a great set when your done. It make the AM band sound like FM with it's broad selectivity and excellent audio frequency response.
