Ron, the video is here:

This radio was completely recapped a long time ago ('50s or '60s) and it's due again (big project), so I haven't been using it.  However, the seller told me it was working on his bench, so I just had to try it when I got it!

There just happened to be a good song by Bette Midler on when I started recording.   Icon_biggrin
