I got the shouldered one. JEEZE it's huge! I got the Deluxe Schematic,etc. from Chuck Schwark . Beats the heck out of NA/Rider's schematics! Even an old cuss like me can read it plain as day. I've only gone over the tubes, put some Philco-brand tubes in there. Best part about this radio is that the grille cloth is PERFECT!!

I WILL get my 89B to OSCILLATE! I have over a dozen 36s to see if  one of them will make it work
If that doesn't work, I will end up pulling the oscillator transformer and put it in the oven at 200 Deg for an hour to see if that brings its Q back. If that doesn't work, I'll put the oven on 'broil'!!!  Icon_lolno
