Anyone have any experience or links for information on repairing old tube radio's? I have an old curtis mathis that has been in my family for years and it powers on (lights up the front and the turn table moves) but it doesnt playanything.

Do the tubes all light up? If they do-good. If one or all of them don't, your first problem is related to power supply. You may have a rectifier tube that is bad. If everything lights up, it's time to start investigating the amplifier section. Without knowing the numbers of the units involved, it's hard to give more accurate advice.

A quick Google of Curtis-Mathis returned almost 2000 hits-the first page showing links to service manuals, etc.
