I'll think about it. Another issue is that all the "new" wiring is rubber coated and disintegrating and needs to all new replaced.

Also, the GE eye tube is just about dead and the 80 has marginal written on it. On the positive side the Arcturus tube tests like new.

While I ponder my options, I went ahead and cleaned it up a little.
