Christmas '18 Project: The Fisher FM-50-B
#13

I have some rust remover made by Permatex, and I tried it on the FM-50-B chassis. It didn't work very well. I'll end up buying some Evapo-Rust Gel and trying again at a later time.

Rubber feet now applied to base, base reinstalled on main chassis. I went ahead and reattached the front panel but it will have to come off again when I convert the dial lamps to LED.

It still needs a set of tubes, and an alignment. Plus, I still need to clean the tube sockets - especially that 1st IF socket.

It's going to be set aside for awhile. Next chemo session is Wednesday, so no radio work this coming weekend. At least I know it is working. Icon_thumbup
