Dominion Electrohome Model 650

This was spotted on the shelves of Value Village for a price I couldn't believe.
$30. Woah, was someone not price checking ebay that day? Not like them to be honest on the price.










Pretty beat up unit. The cabinet is heavily scratched and gouged, all the wiring has rotted, inside are signs of repeated poor quality repairs with lots of cold joints. A partial diagram was found stuffed underneath the chassis.



RadioMuseum has a page on it here and dates it to around 1936/1937 however the pictures do not match the cabinet or the chassis so I suspect the schematic is not correct either. Tubes are too old for me to test as well. Not sure where to get some of these really weird cap values. (500v 8uf)
