After a few years and a few headaches, mine is finally restored. I have reason to think mine was used by either Holiday Inn or Howard Johnson's. I still need to play with 6DR7's, since the vertical isn't perfect, but it works.

I confirmed slight leakage in the vertical output tube. Now, the linearity is as close as I can get it. Here's a better shot.

Nice looking set! Good job. I've got a Siesta that's on my todo list one of these years. I hear they are kind of a pain to work on.
