The only suggestion I can give is to buy stock in a capacitor manufacturer! You're gonna need lots of them. Also hope you saved a digital converter so you can watch it when you are finished restoring it. Can't say for certain, but might need a CRT rebuild as well. I don't mean to sound discouraging. It's just not quite as simple as a radio. However, since you just finished restoring a 37-116 this should be simple for you! Keep us in the loop of this rebuild; Dumont televisions were excellent TV's in their day. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
