[MRCA] WW2 Torn E.b. receiver

[J Mcvey]

 Sounds amazing for a 3 tube set. Can one even find those tubes any more?
It's built like brick sh*t house too!

Been working for a couple weeks now on the WW2 German Army Torn E. b. Receiver. Did some basic clean up on all the contacts and checked for things like bad bypass capacitors and the like along with building up a couple temporary power supplies for the 2 volt filaments and the 90 volts for the B+ supply. The radio is up and running now and have been playing with it for a bit and decided to do a YouTube video being most of the more unusual stuff that goes thru the shop these days I will do a video on. If interested you can see it at:

Too bad I can’t keep this set being I picked it up for a friend. It would be a fun radio to restore although sometimes maybe you are better off keeping things in the original form. Lots of poorly restored or hacked stuff out there but finding something that’s never been touched or painted over is getting harder to do these days
