Let's just say that I would not plug this radio in without thoroughly familiarizing myself with what it is and whether the repairs are valid.
Also if it is a transformer radio, it would bother me if it only worked with the plug one way.
The most benign guess is, they are using a "Line" as an antenna, same way they do in 86 Philco. Then plugging it in reverse connects the Antenna to the "Neutral" which is a GND.
But still, should be looked at.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
