Picked up my 1st tube radio for $5:
It has issues... so far, I know it doesn't run. It also looks to have been in a barn or arric for some time:
It has some nice features:
From looking at the pcb through the vents, I saw a burnt trace and lots of bad joints... I also saw a datecode sticker that tells me it was made in the 26th week of 1956.
Besides the series light bulb trick, are there any general pointers I should know?
