Just picked up a Philco 48-200 Ivory and this is my first try at radio restoration.



Couple questions:

Can anyone tell me what this wax-covered thing is at 1?

When it comes to 3 section filters (Number 2). I assume I replace it with 3 separate caps?  How do I know which wire to use for which cap? The schematic shows:
Condensor Electrolytic 30mf
Condensor Electrolytic 25mf
Condensor Electrolytic 20mf

Any idea what voltages to use? I'm     not that great with reading schematics yet.

Thanks!
