Congratulations, Ron ! That was a herculean task. It is always a pain in the rump when you have to undo mischief created by some previous "restorer." I am dealing with that now on a 37-630, code 126, but your receiver is far more complex, and so was a whole lot more of a challenge. My compliments and respect for a huge task so well done.
