Kirk's Majestic model 15.
#9

Came after work, and almost have finished the recap. I took out the capacitor block, it is akin to that in the AK, soldered around the perimeter tin box potted with tar. I decided there was no need to suffer as all the caps are grounded and there are plenty of grounding points, so all 6 caps, some of which looked like solder tabs and some - just wires going inside the box, I soldered to the groubding points and then directly to where the wires that came to the block were coming from. Like the tube panels.
The two that are left are the Y-caps. Shouldn't be too hard.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
