Pete,
Thanks for the helpful tips. I have located some tubes and will be replacing that 5X4. Also, I have ordered the Cap Kit from the place recomended by Terry earlier on this board. Hope you frequent this site as I am sure I will have questions. This will be a winter project and I plan to take my time and do it right. Right now I am just lining up what I need and getting everything ready.
I have in the last few years restored a couple of Kenwood TS-900 radios. Still actually working on some cosmetics. It was the radio I wanted 30 odd years ago and could never afford. The receiver and audio on those radios are incredable! Send me an email and I can send you a couple of pics of the rigs. w1dg@aol.com
