Hi to all. Not sure if this is the correct group, but I have to start 
somewhere......

My buddy asked me to look at his old Zenith radio. It's rough, but he 
doesn't want it 'restored', just working.
It makes noise and a check of the tubes revealed a bad 1U4. I have some 
coming. Is there anything I need to look out for on this old timer?
I am a big proponent of re-capping old radios. However, with the 1 volt 
tubes, what is the B+ voltage?
Will new caps help? Never even seen one of these before, never mind 
worked on one! ha ha

tnx
