            Good news; bad news.

Flash!!!! Got the band switch connected to the color wheel. Scratched out some of my hair I think. I finally got some bronze cable and figured out the directions/turns to make it turn correctly. The spring is pretty "heavy duty." Perhaps you can see. That's the good news.

The bad news--In this long process I killed the radio. Can't get it to play on any of the 4 bands like it was before I started on this part of it. All I'm getting is a loud hum when touching the grid on the 6F5 tube. *Sigh* Otherwise silent. Back to the drawing board.Icon_evil
