625B Chassis - Deplorable Repairs
#3

Radioroslyn,
Thank you, for the direction. Yeah, the repairs over the years were hasty, but time is money to a repair shop.
I've recapped the bakelites and the cans I got from different salvage set, so, I'm dropping them one at a time as I go from block to block. I've replaced most the caps and a few resistors so far. I took a series of pictures as I took it apart, but some of the wiring was cut free from their original locations and furrballed here and there with the repair caps. there are a couple more hidden repair caps under repair electrolytics, and those connections are wonky too. We've all seen schematics that are in error, but if you vouch for this schematic, I'll follow it.
Thanks, RF

A contract engineer invoiced a company $10000 to place a chalk mark on the defective component.
One piece of chalk: $1.00
Knowing where to put the chalk mark: $9999.00
