I can get it strung up so that it will rotate the tuning capacitor with the tuning knob but then it gets hung up halfway because the tuning string where it comes out of the main pulley off the spring it attaches to snags on the side of the tuning knob bracket.

Does anyone have access to a dial stringing diagram for this radio or have this model of radio that I could see a picture of how the dial string is strung up?

Thannks for your help.
You have to try to string the dial cord, either with the condenser fully clockwise or counterclockwise.
The set was built by Belmont! Check other Riders listings to see if there's another set that's similar.
