Welcome to the Phorum. I'd love to see some pictures of your radio / phono both before and as you progress with your work. I find such things educational, and learn from the others here all the time despite being a retired EE, and restoring antique radios for more than half a century now. One can ALWAYS learn something new. Take your time. Be patient. Don't be afraid to ask questions. The folks here are ready to help as best they can. Most of all, have fun. That's really the whole point of the hobby.
