Thanks for the great advice. Appears that the tuning motor is shorted. Do you normally do a COMPLETE recap of the radio chassis?"

Picked up this one at an auction in Indiana. Disgustingly dirty, but salvageable. Had the 15 in speaker, tweeters, and a Tauscher sound board! Cabinet is good to start...the whole set will require a lot of work but will be saved.
Scott SLRM National Radio R-302/URE-22 Connection
