Nathan's 38-116XX Restoration
#12

+1!
Tnx for the tip on the brown glue. I had looked around for some awhile back but it's was kinda pricey and didn't like the available colors. Just ordered 36 sticks for abt $7.

I did a 37-116 122 back in the mid '80s (the radio not me) didn't remove the sub chassis but got most of the caps replaced. The set worked well for several years but eventually it died. Turned out to be an unreplaced cap the the oscillator circuit has shorted. Was able to get it out with out a lot of disassembly and was restored to operating condition. Years later one of the filter went leaky and I haven't gotten around to having a look at it.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
