Chassis back in case, not easy.
It does work the radio and RTE R1 LW is OK, too much mains borne interference for BBC R4 LW. MW is fine, but nothing on it till dusk, except with super incredible designs that can get Spirit Radio from North Cavan and 5 Live from UK. Spirit vanishes at night due to some Continental station. I think it's 549 kHz?
I'll not bother adding RF line filtering to the PSU. Essentially all I've done is replace two capacitors, four "rectifiers" on a Selenium stick and adjust a resistor that shown as adjustable and wasn't. Apart from repairing the transformer. It is what it is. I have some excellent sets: valve, transistor and IC.
