RCA 5Q55
#7

I have begun to work on this set. Tonight I began with the volume pot and line cord. Removed the line cord, and the pot to clean it. I found the switch on the pot is bad, and tinkering didn't seem to help, so I have ordered a new one. That has put a stop to further work until it arrives. I am waiting for an order of condensers, mica, poly, and electrolytic to arrive anyway.
In other news, I got a whole bunch of 25 foot rolls of solid 18 gauge PVC insulated wire from eBay. its voltage rating is 600V. Here is a link to the vendor for those interested. It will be a great help in restoring those sets that used solid rubber covered wire.
