Some information please
#13

Rob, why don't you post some photos of the chassis and power supply. The set may have been built up from bits and pieces of different radios, some of which may be recognizable. 1920's radios are all pretty much alike in their basic circuitry.

Are you saying that the radio does not power up at all unless you connect an external ground? If so then something is definitely miswired in the AC line power supply wiring.
