Would you think it has been on for a total of more than 10 years out of its 50 years existence?

If so, then maybe renewing the PSU caps could result in better sound.

If not, then leave well-alone! Wink

Thanks for the advice Graham. Given that the lettering on the fascia isn't at all worn it has either had infrequent use or it has been permanently tuned to one radio station. 10 years use equates to 4 or 5 hours use every day which I doubt. So for fear of making it worse rather than better I will take the easy option and leave well alone. The tuner uses valves, I kind of like the fact that when you first turn it on you just get hiss for a few seconds Smile.
