That is a great one. There is a tremendous amount of knowledge in that radio forum. Take advantage of it. It is wonderful that you can ask a question about a problem and get expert guidance to the answer! Im a member also.

I agree 100% about the radio forums! I'm a member of the Antique Radio Forums and the guys on there helped me alot with my philco restoration, and even showed me where to get schematics

Thanks! Oh yes I understand how frustrating the very last step in replacing a dial cord can be. I was replacing a dial cord one day and Murphy was watching, and laughing. Then I saw the super glue and I hear behind me no, no, NO! LOL, LOL. I hope you have your boots on. Anyway youll find it works really good. Thanks again.

Super glue, that's a great idea! I would always end up making a loop type knot by doubling up the cord at the end which goes to the spring but often I would have to readjust. Some of these dial cord jobs have been so complicated.
Great tip on the dial cord super glue trick! I've spent hours trying to do this!

Beautiful radio. Today design is not so interesting. Every equipament looks like other. At this time the models are so exclusive. With cars is the same, in Brazil mosts cars looks as the are the same model.
Interesting video. Interesting radio.
