Bush Radio DAC 90A
#6

Hello Everyone;
  I started cleaning up parts of this radio, started on the knobs, they are sort of a three piece affair, they have a plastic ring that is pressed onto the back as a skirt, and a polished metal ring inlayed into a groove in the face of each knob. The function is also engraved into the face outside of the metal ring, on off volume, and tubing, this was filled with paint but I can't tell what colour. I don't know why they even bothered with the clear plastic skirt rings, behind those is a felt washer so you can barely notice them, but I will put the rings back on regardless. Next up is washing, and polishing up the Bakelite cabinet, and unearthing the one tube tester I have that will test Phillips Rimlock tubes
Regards
Arran
