Hi all, nice site!
I just bought a great little tube radio and it works good too! The thing is there are two tubes inside with connectors on top that seem loose. There is a wire attached and it's pretty snug. I'm concerned because the little cap on top is loose. You can rotate it back and forth a little bit. The tubes work, or at least the radio does, but I think it is odd that these caps are loose. Is that normal? Do I need new tubes?

Thanks in advance,


John White
