RCA 6T
#11

Richard

Taking lots of photos does indeed help.

However, RCA sets of 1937 and earlier are so well documented, complete with pictorial wiring diagrams showing where each wire goes (not the proper routing, but the wiring itself), which makes servicing these radios so much easier.

Take heed, Paul - you have one of the best documented sets there is, should you choose to restore it. Other manufacturers could have taken lessons from RCA when it came to documentation. Unfortunately, RCA started cutting back on their documentation about midway through the 1937 season, as they began to leave out pictorial wiring diagrams that could be a real help in difficult sets.
