Speaker and tubes for a Knight radio
#18

I'm pretty sure that the tuning cap is brass and not pot metal/aluminum. That's a good thing! I picked up a Crosley Bandbox battery set at a radio auction only to find that all three tuning caps are badly deformed. Think I'm going try installing ones from a AK set I've got a few spares.
I don't really remember how it comes apart (SG-8) As it's been three or four yrs ago. I think that the drum rides on pot metal bracket and that is where the binding is occurring. I was able to lub and just keep moving back and forth. Got it to the place that it was useable but still a little stiff.
