Thanks, Electro. The radio sounds great. Icon_smile

I won't have the BOL working this time around. It still needs a photocell and an idler. Those parts and the time to work on it are not in the budget right now. This is going to be a crazy busy month for me at work, and my weekends are going to be full up, too. Icon_crazy

Maybe I'll get to take a week off to go up and get it running this Christmas. Besides, we don't have any 78 records, anyway. Icon_rolleyes
It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
