As the restoration
progresses, least I hope for progress, I will post the sequences here.
Please check back!
First thing; New Electrolytic Capacitors |

Old Caps Left In Place to Preserve Appearance |
(1). With
the recap of the electrolytics complete, the hum has stopped.
(2). Next
step is to determine why the Second R.F. - 24 tube does not "light" (see the schematic).
(3). Upon simple testing
the tube is found to be "bad", even after trying the various tube restoration steps. (In my experience faulty tubes are
rare.) After tube replacement the set now receives with good sensitivity and great
volume. Next step, continue capacitor replacement and resistor checking.
(4). Restoration of
the bypass capacitor block. Click here for details.
