GE 210 restoration
I picked up this GE 210 bakelite AM/FM radio a few months back. It makes a nice companion to the mahogany 212 version.
Doh! A little 5 minute epoxy took care of that loose AM loop antenna.
After a basic recap, there was hum, weak AM reception and no FM.
All those issues were caused by weak and shorted tubes. I put a fresh set in and it's playing just great
