DuMont RA-112 TV: Next Project
#9

Progress, but not recently. I've got most of the re-capping done, including re-stuffing the electrolytic cans, replacing a few, off value resistors and replacing the very bad, focus-control rheostat. It's been done for several weeks. I need to replace the line filter caps and move on to the high-voltage... At some point I need to take apart and clean the tuner. It's currently seized up pretty well.

I suspect some of the mica caps aren't original. There are a couple of places where there are two in parallel, like someone didn't have the exact value to replace with a single cap.

Regarding PaxPumpkin's recognition of the Philco chassis in the background of an earlier photo, it's a 38-2. It's restored and working. It needs to be aligned.... It's also awaiting the refinishing of its' home (cabinet).

   

Can't think of anything witty.
