Thank you everyone. I am going to go ahead and more the switch in front of the caps. Bill's idea of putting in a fuse sounds good to. I have to agree with Planigan, when I was younger all we had was a radio to listen too (late 1940's and early 1950's) and I don't remember having to plug it in before we turned it on Icon_razz. I hope this one will work because I did a total rewire and changed all the risistors and caps. Some of the resistors where creaked. Got a little work left, but I am sure I'll be asking for more help.
