Atwater Kent model 38

I recently found an AK 38 and went looking for a schematic. I found one here but it did not show the values of the condensors. The AK website did not show a listing for the 38 but does show a schematic with values for the 37. They look very similar. Can I use that one as a substitute? Thanks for any help or suggestions. Al

The 38 and 37 use the same power pack. All of the fixed capacitors in the radio are in the power pack. So yes, the 37 diagram cap values are what you need.

Hi: I found three bypass caps in the RF section of the 37 receiver. The 38 schematic shows these caps as well and all three are .3s. Since they look to be similar in both the 37 and 38 RF sections, I'm guessing they are the same value? I appreciate your help. Al
