Refinishing Ideas
#10

Hi Doppelganger,
If you are having a Pro install the chassis, ask them to add the Radio-Aux switch. This way, you can play OTR from a computer, MP3, cassette, CD, whatever. AM Modulation / demodulation does add distortion. Piping Glenn Miller directly into the radio's amp makes for great listening. Adding the stereo components will make modern Big Bands like Manhattan Transfer or Duke Ellington even more pleasant.

Motorola sets of the late 1950s had a combined channel using 2 6BQ5s in Push Pull, and separate left and right channels using single 6BQ5s. The center channel was full frequency, not a subwoofer.
