Did a little bit more today.  Removed the rest of the finish, sanded again and used grain filler.  Thinned it out with mineral spirits and brushed it on across the grain of the wood... 

   
   

Then I used a card to scrape it off.

   

After that I rubbed it off with a cloth.  Looks pretty good.  There were a few spots I noticed where I didn't remove all of the old finish.  They were at the top of the radio, so I sanded with 800 grit sandpaper to remove them.  

   

The only thing I came across that I wasn't too sure about was this small dent or chip in the veneer.  Friend of mine says leave it alone, don't fill it, because it's a bit of 'age and character'.  I'm not sure.  I have some wood filler I can use, but I'm undecided about that.
