Hi Russ and welcome to the Phorum!!
I've always liked farm sets, something about being off the grid or the grid is nowhere near you. The original owner probably spent many nights listening to this set without an electric light just him and a kerosene lamp. Shadows all around odd noises kinda spooky! In 1935 lots of good shows on the airwaves Fibber McGee & Molly was just starting out while Amos & Andy, The Shadow, and Calling all Cars had been well established by then.
Hopefully someone here has a 38 chassis that can be seen so you can have something to go by other than just the diagram. Sometimes the parts placement can be a little critical so some pics can really help. Sorry I don't have a 38.
Best of luck w/it
Terry
