Kirk's Mistery Century.
#31

OK, it is speaking nw too. Good, two radios today.

Have to wait or that capacitor as the peak volts across that on I have there now exceed the 100V rating.

It is a TRF, so not a whole lot of alignment if any.
#32

Tried alignment...not much can be done, just tuning gang padders. Given the dial precision don't even matter much.
Well, it tunes in and speaks.
#33

Oh and the caps came...so At 115V it s now exactly 300mA current through filaments.
#34

YAY!

Fantastic!

I can see in this photo he is dreaming of cabinets.

I know what you need, Kirk - you need to restore a Mae West Emerson when you out.
Keep picturing it (or Mae herself) in your head, this will give you strength to recover.
