Some time has gone by and I've had the opportunity to pick up two more of these little sets. One of them is identical to the first. Some one did some major surgery to it which I would mind but the work is REALLY sloppy. Chassis isn't quite as rusty and the speaker is ok. Long story short I got it on the bench repaired the two rf coils and replaced a resistor in the detector circuit and Voila!!. I was blessed with a working set. Something unusual is the band switch is solder in place to the BC band position. Another victim of the war. Gosh two in one month!! This one I'm going to fix so I find out what the coverage is. The cabinet on this one is pretty bad. It was painted and some of the veneer is missing from the front panel. This one will get the cabinet from the first one.
The other new arrival is a real Simplex. Cabinet is a little different but in great shape and very cute. It has no chassis but it does have the speaker which I need for the first set I got a few months ago.
The plan is to the first one to use as a guide to rebuild the second one. The first one will need a complete rebuilt and some paint work to preserve the rusty chassis.
