Yes!

Is there anywhere that I can get one of these so I don't have to wait to get one mailed?

Hard to say, some areas have such a luxury and some don't.

Where do you live?
Got most of the caps in.
Got rid of the buzz,but I am not getting sound other than a very faint buzz from the speaker.
Maybe rectifier tube is week?
Doesn't the rectifier control the audio?
Have to keep digging I guess.


Ok Guy's,
Got it re-capped and it's working now,but still has a buzz.
Someone earlier replace the volume switch with a combe on/off/volume switch due to a bad off switch.
Seems like the volume should be higher than it is now.
Seems like he used a switch rated lower than the original volume switch.
I could take the volume switch out of the old chassis,but then I would have to replace the power switch that is really difficult to remove.
Any suggestions?
Would at least like to get rid of the buzz.Thought the new caps would take care of that.
Thanks for your help.
Murf
