I had posted this on that other forum, but I realize that many of you seldom go there. So here, again, are a few pictures of a Scott 16 receiver chassis (there is also an audio amp) after a few minor touch-ups.

The 77 new rivets are all in the main chassis. There are many more in the power supply/ audio amp chassis.

I fired the unit up last night - and it worked Icon_clap

Even prior to an alignment I can tell this is going to be one of the best receivers in the collection. Now I have to find a place to adequately display it, keeping in mind that I still have that other elephant in the closet which has even a larger footprint.

OH! Almost forgot. There are many more pictures on my Blog which will not eat up Ron's bandwidth.
