She will definitely not be parted out. I would never part out a radio survivor.
Problem is I have 2 PT-69's, an 84B, a Transitone, a 45, a 62, a Crosley, 2 Halsons, a Halli S-40B, and the GE LC-759 that all need electrical help. Some are dead, some are half alive and hum, some light up but nothing else.
I will have to put the names in a hat and pick one at random to begin my electronic journey.
If I make it to Kutztown I will look for all the test equipment.
What are the they in order of most important?
