The 118 is a great AM/SW set Scott, with an RF stage and push-pull 42s on the output. Has a Shadow Meter too.

Oh, and yes as you mentioned Tim,

...eleven bakelite block caps,

...three potted caps in the tone control,

...and a Partridge in a Pear Tree.

Happy Philco!

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
