Winter Project Sets
#12

Lots of progress now on the chassis. All capacitors and all but one resistor replaced... forgot to order one. Also two of the four wire wound replaced as they were cement/sand type and didn't test correctly. Just need to install the last resistor and clean the rosin off the PC board. Also found during all this were two resistors of a different value than called out in Sam's or Riders. There were also a resistor and capacitor missing completely but shown on both schematics.  I've restored it as it was built as it obviously worked. No notes of this were found in the run changes listed. Thanks to TV Restorer Guy for the reproduction couplate!
