My RCA C9-4
#21

I received some more of the metal tubes I ordered, the last I needed to completely replace the glass ones used where metal should have been. Tested the radio with the repaired speaker. It took care of the distortion problem. I also re-checked the alignment, found it was right on. Earlier, I rubbed a second coat of tung oil on the cabinet. Looks even better now. Really, the only thing left is to wait for the dial to come from Renovated Radios.
