Wow! That's a cool "Radio shop". I have an old 1937 Westinghouse floor model radio that I had repaired about 5 years ago. I haven't turned it on since. I wonder if I have to do some sort of a procedure to fire it up in case the capacitors need reforming. Sounds like they can initially short out after sitting so long.
