Was working, now trying to burn up!
#22

Quote:The two rectangular cans at the front of the picture are NOT capacitors, but most likely IF transformers. The round thing circled in the back looks like a filter cap. Before you get in much deeper, get some books on old radio, and find what various parts looked like in the 1930s and 40s. It will save you time and trouble in the end.

Yes, I intended to. I reserved 2 books through the library's online system last night. I just returned from picking those 2 up -- plus 1 more on the subject of antique radio restoration. plus 2 on reading schematics. So I have lots of reference material for now. Depending which books I like, I may order used copies online. They are nice general reference guides.
