Majestic 130-A

Hi Guys, Just new to this forum..Need Info on a Majestic 130A radio.
I have a schematic from nostailaire but the size is very small.
This set is in pretty good condition except it don't have any speaker.
I have restored 20 or so old tube radios, but nothing like this.
First of all, it has all the tubes. One bad 24, the rest check 60% or better.
How do you get at the cap's? I call them bathtub type, you know the cans
thats soldered to the chassis. Are they electrolytic or the paper ones in a can? This is a TRF type of set. How do you get at the IF and RF coils? there all in a tank like can. Does anyone know what Transformer voltages I should have. I know the tubes have 2.5VAC fil. voltages.
If anyone has any tips on this beast, I would welcome any help.
I just ordered an electromagnitic speaker on ebay for a Majestic radio, hope
it works and will work with my set.
Thanks to all,

Gary
