[NJARC] Cloth Wire

[Angelo Napoli]

Hi Al,

Thanks for the wire. I received it last week. I am happy to report that I 
used it to rewire several portions of the radio and completed the recapping 
of the Stewart Warner (03-5E1 Chassis). The radio is now working great after 
passing a successful "smoke-test" picking up many local and distant AM 
stations as well as LW. Thanks,

Angelo
