HaHa MiketheDruid, if I only had a nickel for every time I've heard that- wait, I do. It is unbelievable how much you guys know! So far I've been able to get two radios to work just by replacing ecaps and capacitors in them- a little Emerson 541 and a Wards' Airline console. Others- not so much. I WILL learn, though. I have a copy of Old Time Radio Restoration by Joseph Carr and Complete Guide to Reading Schematics by John Douglas-Young. I studied some theory when I was in college (in the 70s) but not nearly enough. I predict it won't be long before I'm posting pics of my conquests on this phorum!
