Thanks for the compliment, Gary! When I sprayed those sheets of asbestos, I laid on a thick coat that soaked right into the sheets.
Ron says he's only seen one other of these 19LZs that had the police band. Dang, these must be rare as chicken lips!
Chuck is sending me the papers on this. N/A schematics are always too fuzzy and devoid of details. If you never ordered schems from Chuck, DO SO! No kidding, these are the ORIGINAL papers!! Uhhh, PHOTOCOPIES of the originals, heh heh.
Thankfully, there are only 8 bakelite "condensers"in this set. I can't see one of them, it has so much stuff over the top of it.
Come over and help, Gary! Icon_biggrin
