Hey Brad, I hope you don't mind me jumping in on your thread, but I just picked up a K731 tonight from a guy and this is also my first radio restore. Plugged it in and everything seems to work, but definitely some hum to it. I was told these had the selenium rectifiers in them as well as paper caps, so I'll need to check further. Took the back off and took a quick look just to see if all the tubes are lit.

One thing I noticed was that the dial indicator bar was crooked and it was about an inch off on the dial for any station. It looks like the indicator had a piece on the back of it that kept it on the tuning wire, but has been broken off. Does anyone know how I need to go about fixing and/or adjusting it?

It looked like there was just the one electrolytic cap--big ole silver job. Is this correct?

And last but not least, a schematic would be nice. Where to get one?

Shane
