Thanks Brad. I was really curious with this radio today, it looked so untouched underneath that I had to see if it would play. I clipped in a couple new ecaps.
Then I checked the power transformer which checked out good. Then I plugged in the 80 rectifier and everything looked good. So I tested all the tubes and installed them and brought the radio up on my variac very slowly. At 90 v. it picked up one of the 2 local stations I get around here. I think that is amazing that a 91 yr. old radio can sit for how ever long and then get powered up and play. Amazing!!
