37-604 Repair Project
#7

Here is a look at the chassis after new electrolytics were installed in their can, Bakelite blocks rebuilt, other caps and resistors replaced. The power cord is temporary, I have since installed a cloth covered cord. In a way it does not look too much different, but at least it is neater.
I made a mask out of tan paper that I laminated. Not award winning, but it does the job. I tried various materials, manilla folder, paper sprayed with clear coat, milk bottle jug, and white paper. Some of the tests were not cut to shape as I was only trying out the material. The original mask is the second one in the middle row.

Oh that sucks. It’s something easily overlooked. Hopefully it’s nothing more than a resistor! Ron462ron — 08:08 AM
