Someone added a couple of toggle switches that will be removed and a new back made

The two speaker controls

Wolfer, mid range and tweeter speakers

What's left of the tube location drawing

Light in the turntable area






Voltage dropping resistor that is dead


I took apart the dead resistor to see if I can repair it, still cogitating...

Lots of spots where a mouse peed




Recanning the two electrolytic cowpastures







Schematic

 I managed to get a schematic from several places but none were good quality so I had to take the best one and relabel the components. Also had to make changes because the schematic differed from the actual radio. I will eventually generate a schematic of the speaker circuit to show the two controls and the crossover network.

Documentation

The first step is to get the documentation like schematic alignment guide and whatnot. Sadly, I have not found a tube location drawing, not needed for restoration but it would be nice to replace the missing one in the cabinet.






Speaker "tone" adjusting controls

Huge 15" woofer pointing to the floor, tweeter, & midrange speakers

Remnants of the tube location guide

Some post factory switches added in the speaker circuit. I'll figure out why these were added but probably delete them
