Hi Rmorg, who can dive in and help?

I own this very nice midget radio, Model LUCILLE, from KATZENSTEIN & KEENE, New York, USA

http://www.radiomuseum.org/r/katzen_lucille.html

Today I could repair it, but have replaced the missing power cord with integrated resistor by a 125 Ohms resistor, according to my calculation, for a main voltage of 110V. So my first question: is it still possible to buy a replacement power cord, like the original? If not, who has a solution?  On my side, I have integrated the replacement resistor on the chassis. Without the cabinet, every thing is OK, but I am effraid about the additional heat generation when the wood cabinet will be mounted (risk of damage)...

And by the way, does somebody know more about this make? I could find nothing with Google. Has somebody the schematic? The first filtering capacitor was 32µF, the second 16µF, is this OK? (those in place were not the original).

Thanks a lot for sharing info and tricks,

Christian ADAM
