DuMont RA-112 TV: Next Project
#7

I have the same one, was my grandparents' first TV. these were totally "Top of the Line" except for another DuMont model with the same CRT but a giant transformer 2 5U4s, 2 6BG6s 2 1X2s as voltage doubler. Can't remember that model; fixed for a neighbor when I was a 13 year old kid. If the gang thinks that you would go broke recapping an RA112 , this other model would increase the national debt! I have not gotten to mine recently, but the Tuner (Mallory-Ware "Inductuner") will have to come out of the chassis to service it. Several U Tubes and internet articles on restoration on a RA113 (Same set but with 17" rectangular glass CRT).

Good luck, keep us posted, mine is another retirement project for me.
