I decided to take the phonograph out this morning. Obviously it needs a whole bunch of cleaning. I think I'll take it out to the garage and blow it off with some compressed air, then very carefully wipe it with a generous amount of soapy water and a microfiber cloth and see how it looks. I ordered Chuck's documentation for this radio the other day and should have that by the end of the week. I'm hoping it has some servicing info for the phono.
