Fun Philco 54-1423 find
As found, for $20 in a hannibal, MO antique store:
  Was told that the turntable worked but the radio didn't. No stylus in the TT. After about 20 minutes of lovin: I freed up the radio tuning with a dab of oil at the right places. Since it was plugged in recently (within the last 6 mos), I gave it a quick variac (over a minute or so) and the turntable spun, sounded like it needed a new idler, the autofunctions seemed to work okay, if a tiny bit sluggish, but no radio. No sound, no nuthin. Recap time!            Looks like it's been partially recapped in recent memory, as well....
