I may be able to scan you the sams tomorrow. It will be a jpg file hosted on our site so you can download it, then I'll remove them once youve got them to conserve our disk space.
I always put the fuse right first where the power enters the set in the hot lead. That way if anything shorts. filaments, diode, whatever, it blows.
1/2 amp would probably do for a table top radio.

If a set is using ceramic capacitors they are usually still good. You may be able to upgrade your audio quality by replacing any ceramics in the audio circuit with mylar. I'd go ahead and just do those electrolytics while you have the chassis on the bench, even if the old one looks good, just so you don't have hum problems creep up in the next 5-10 yrs.
