My Grundig 4095 restoration (many photos)


These are good starting points for info on German radios:

I fully restored a Grundig 4095 a couple of years ago. Big job! The cabinet and chassis were in pretty good shape, but dirty, and nearly every epoxy-dipped paper capacitor looked swollen and needed to be replaced. I quickly gave up on the idea of using lookalike replacement parts, but Sprague polypropylene orange drops worked really well, and I was able to at least reuse the shell of the original selenium rectifier and multisection B+ can capacitor













It was just too bad about that dead EM34 magic eye! I replaced it with a Russian part.
