Thanks,
I hadn't got a bridge rectifier handy, but it can always be changed later. Actually, this set was in such a bad state, it was really only fit for the rubbish tip! That is why I decided on a complete rebuild. Not much of the original was salavgeable although I did get it working before I started. The valves are OK, the IF transformers and coils are OK. Tuning capacitor OK. The case is not too bad, and the loudspeaker and matching transformer are OK. And the chasis, of course. I only sprayed the top, front and back of the chassis. The underneath is bare so I could get the earth connections OK.
