Elliot Ness - Thanks for the encouragement and link. I'm back in! Your tip about focusing on a couple of wires at a time makes sense. I'll start with replacing the 6.3v heater wires and dial light wiring and take it from there. That radio in your link was in a lot worse shape than mine..... made me feel ashamed to give up.

codefox1 - Thanks, I agree it's worth the extra effort to save it from the dumpster..... it was killing me thinking I was the one who might end up dumping it. Hopefully I can keep costs under $100, but I may be pushing it with replacing a 6a7 converter tube I just broke while cleaning. Icon_rolleyes

Really great to know I have technical and moral support here. You radio guys are good folks! Icon_thumbup
