Hello everyone! I am trying to help my dad find a spare part for a radio from the 80s. From my understanding the part (in the photos) is needed for tape recording. I don’t know the model of the radio, I just know the manufacturer Schneider.

I got this at a thrift shop for about $10 few months back, and want to recondition it. It's got a broken antenna and wondering if anyone knew what this style of antenna is called? It's on a ball joint on the bottom and pulls in and out like normal. Outside of the antenna being broken and little dirty, it worked great! Really clear sounds. Thanks!

I'm in the process of restoring this Phillips CM22L radio. Step 1 will be to replace all the paper caps with film caps as well as what I think is electrolytics.
Just to confirm for the paper caps, 0.025MFD is 0.025uF thus 25nF?
I also want to replace C35/C36 (electrolytic?) because I'm fairly certain it is not working anymore, am I correct to replace this with 2 seperate elecrolytics (like a 40uF @ 150V and 80uF @ 150V) or do I need unipolar? Part nr for this cap 516-005 T-2 (40MFD @ 150V.W and 80MFD @ 150V.W.)
What else will I need to replace?

So I’ve had this Portable 1963 RCA Victor total sound stereo for awhile now and never did i have problems until a couple months ago. A little bit of back story, i’m a broke teenager and i inherited this from my grandparents who had it sitting in the basement collecting dust for awhile, then on top of that they got it from an old man who had it sitting in his garage for god only knows how long. A couple months back I was spinning some vinyl when i went to flip slides and the part that holds the needle detached from the black part that holds it and allows you to move it, i figured it was ol ..read more

So I've got this old radio from Samsung, and U was wondering if anyone knows anything about it? It says on the remote that it is an MM11, but I googled that and didn't seem to find any significant info. I am on vacation right now, so I don't have any images of it, but if anyone knows anything about it, a comment would be appreciated!
