More "progress"...but the radio is down!
Too lazy to think about finishing the 1.5 filter cans, I moved to the blocks. Since I was in the lazy mode, I chose the easiest, but it was a mica, so I moved to the next. This one was more work, it exposed a couple of tubular caps. They were replaced as was the single .1 block, but I broke the lead of a 500k resistor, while straightening it. A 1M resistor reads way high too. Unfortunately, I don't have replacements, so a trip to Radio Shack, tomorrow, is in order. New components are ugly!
In the process, I burnt my finger!
Enjoy the remainder of your week-end!
