Another 48-482
#1

Some of you may remember my first postings on this Phorum when I was restoring a 48-482, which turned out rather well in the end. Well, over the years I have acquired two more complete with cabinet, and another chassis with the buttons and knobs. I figured it was time to begin work on another one.

Here is a picture of the top of the chassis before any work. It's a little dusty, but all there and in respectable shape.

Here is a picture of the first work done one it. I replaced the line cord, but have not connected it since I have to replace the condensers in the bakelite block first.

I measured the physical size of the two electrolytic condensers so I can try to order something suitable as a replacement, otherwise I will have to do as I did on the last one, and mount terminal strips inside the chassis to hold separate electrolytic condensers since the two are multi section. This should keep me amused for the next couple of months.
