Thats the worst advice I have ever heard.
The fuse is there to protect the radio.
INcreaSiNG THE fuse size only creates more problems.
The capacitors are there for a purpose also.
When resurrecting old radios it is very important to bring the power up
slowly with a Variac.
Because you did not do that, you are screwed.
I doubt if just putting fuses into it, along with capacitors is going to
solve the problem.
Swans were a POS even when they were new.
Your best bet is to shine it up real nice and use it as a conversation
piece.
Yep Barry OGrady is a know troll and not worth bothering with
