Now that I have my 41-220 working I am going to start a rebuild on a 66B tombstone and was curious if there were any pitfalls to watch out for? A good start is that the IFs and coils check good. Bad thing is the choke shows open. Also, the speaker cone is pretty well tore up so will need a new cone for it.
