Help me to help a friend. Dont have this print in my Beitmans. Could use one to bring this baby to life. Has an outstanding hum along with AM reception. My only available electrlytic blew when connected because of the voltage difference. It fixed the hum but when I was checking if it was getting hot, pop-pssssssssst, no more oil. Need a print to get the other three of four bands to respond. Probably will need all of the original caps replaced. Thanks for your help

Hi Pat

Didn't find your radio schematic. Was your Stewart Warner made in US?

Be sure the replacement electrolytic caps have at least the same voltage rating as the original. Polarity is also important. You can use the same capacity value or slightly higher.

If no one comes up with the schematic listing tubes may help locate a similar radio.

Hey, thanks for the quick reply. The cap is 14uF 300 volt. The radio has an 80 for a rectifier. Another tube is a 45, 6C6 and 6F6. Others are hard to read but are early five and six pinn tubes. I will look closer and get-back to you.

Be careful, a #45 and 6F6 tube shouldn't be in the same radio. Use 22 mfd @ 450 volts for replacement caps. They are a standard value.

OK. Got the tube run-down. Seems that they look better the second time: 1-80, 1-42, 1-76, 1-75, 2-6D6 and 1-6C6. These should go together well. Thanks for your help. Pat

Hey folks> I found a print in your Riders. Had not seen that catalogue before. It was under Stewart Warner R-126 which includes a lot of models thru R-1261. I guess that the -1- that follows the -126- is the next model. Will try to copy to the preinter. Thanks ya'll.
