Had a little spare time at the shop today so Mr Mohawk paid a visit to Mr Crosley's cabinet. It's looked pretty bad ( that's an odd statement,oxymoron??). Lots of wear and the top has some discolorations. Mr Bix did a striptease on the top and it looks much better but still has large blackish stain. Mr Mohawk was able to do wonders for the rest of the cabinet. It looks quite good now but still needs a little burn in work on some small nicks on the edges. Will post some pics later, back is killing me! May pull out the tuning condenser for the detector stage and give it a good cleaning. On any set it is important that the tuning condenser make good connection at the rotor and the stator. Without this it can cause a lot of problems with the detector not wanting to oscillate or can cause intermittent problems that can make your hair smoke.

ps While I was at work I was able to visit a friend of mine and was able to talk him out of a 112A tube which will work nicely in the Crosley's audio output stage. Also managed to get a WWII aircraft transmitter's screen grid modulator too. I kinda handy 'cause I have the transmitter that it goes with (BC-696 transmitter and BC-456 modulator) It also came with the 28v dynomotor that takes 28vdc and turns it into 550vdc.
