Philco 38-62 from the AHRS swap meet

I got this Philco this past Saturday for $45. It works, sort of. I will be replacing the electrolytics Saturday 5-1-15 in hopes of getting some stations. It gets one station loud and clear, and sometimes gets a few more, but never at night. It also has issues at the higher end of the scale. It has a botched up job of and electrolytic capacitor replacement, I will hopefully take care of that this weekend. We have been talking about the capacitors here, so maybe some of you could take a look and give me some additional advice. And yes, I still have the Zenith and will begin working on it when I get one of those "round tuits."
