Power On
#10

As for "anyone" can fix a radio by replaceing paper caps and tubes, that would depend on what is wrong with the radio... could have bad coil, transformer etc. There is no gaurantee and obviously the more you know the better.
Tubes could be marginal, depends on performance, etc. You say you get "a" station, do you get stations all through the dial?
The alignment is like tuning your car it may run but it will work better if you keep it tuned. Yes, the factory did an alignment but over the years components change values which can throw the alignment off.
