So is Walter fixing it for you or just critiquing the over priced repair job? If he is able to critique it maybe he has time to fix it right if you ask nicely.

When it comes to tube electronic restoration I'm a firm believer in "If you want it done right you gotta do it yourself". Almost no repair shops will touch a tube radio and most that will either do a bad job, rip you off or both. Similarly few collectors who can restore the electronics well will do so for others and those that do either are expensive, overbooked or both.

The fastest most economical way to get it done right to your standards is to pick a simple Radio and teach your self the basics over a weekend. Go to Phill's Old Radios on the internet and look at some of his beginner recap advice and restoration write ups....It is good info to learn from. If you have problems we can help.
