Another Bing comes off the line
#3

Very nice, Kirk. I've done about 6 of these now, all but one were 46-1201's. It's kind of a pain getting the chassis out, having to unsolder all of those phono wires and the loop antenna but once it's out it is pretty easy to recap. The last one I did I wound up replacing all of the resisitors too.

I had a 48-1201 but it was identical appearance wise to the 1946's. I had heard some of the 1948's had a metal disc replacing the decal above the dial, but I had never seen one, until just this past week when one turned up on 'the bay. I borrowed a pic from it to show what the disc looks like.
