new project - Aria 542
Picked this up at a barn sale last year, aria model 542, has a shortwave band and standard band. The top is rough and missing some pieces, I will most likely put a new piece on top. The cord is totally gone. Has a nice rola speaker in it.
I replaced the cord, next was to get to the electrolytics. Found somebody mounted a 3 can section under the chassis. Tore that out and replaced the electrolytics. Fired it up and got stations  even picked up China radio on shortwave band. Next is to replace the wax capacitors, theres only a few in there, and then move on to the cabinet.

That's a nice set, looks like a 6" speaker? And transformer-operated, a quality touch. And it has a backwards dial!
 That cord wouldn't have stopped some people from plugging it in!
