One question, what are "paper capacitors" & how do they differ from
those found on other radios..? (One of the contacts who aparently
services these old German radios suggested replacing the paper
capacitors before replacing tubes.).



Paper capacitors are made with paper inside as the name implies.
These capacitors tend to dry out and tend to explode sooner or later,
destroying a lot inside the radio. So a replacement with modern parts/
capacitors is highly recommended.
