Love this article. About once a year, I’ll buy an eBay tube radio from someone local. I’ll fix it on up since the tubes are usually good and all that needs to be replaced are the sad wax caps. Maybe a little realignment as well since I have it open.

I then give it back to the seller who usually is excited about having it work again. Once in a while I will put the stories on eham.net.

If for any reason the radio breaks, going to send the author an email to offer to fix it for free. All it takes are about $3 worth of mouser capacitors in my experience.
