Philco PT-25
#2

Im sure someone can aswer your question on someplace to repair your radio, probably a radio club in your area. I wanted to say though, You say this radio works but hasnt been restored or recapped. It isn't a good idea to play the radio, it is a ticking time bomb with those old capacitors, etc in there. I f you play it , it could very well catch on fire..or at least mess up other things in it like transformer etc that will be more expensive and maybe wont even be able to find. It could be worse if something catches fire and you lose your home because of it. Don't play it until it is restored. Good Luck, Warren
