Incredibly cool. I picked up an Astatic 200. The element, date stamped 1942, had a capacitor wired to the back. The chord was cut off and I have yet to test the element.
I did get a Masco A-17 amp, estimated to be from 1944. Still playable but now a Skip Simmons rebuild (skipsimmonsamps.com) should help it last another 70+ years. Nice to know we used to build things to last. ---------- BnT
