Thank you, both. I did a model 95 a year or so ago, and the biggest issue there was the restring of the tuning condenser. Even the restuff of the filter block wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I had no issues with any of the RF transformers. I am expecting this one to be pretty much straight forward, run of the mill, caps and resistors. But there is always the possibility of a "gotcha" out there someplace. Sounds like it will be a nice cold weather project.

Chris,

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the radio was removed before bidding was over so I didn't get a chance to bid.dconant — 04:10 PM
