My Next Project - worse than the last?
#9

   
   

Here's the chassis after a quick clean up. A little brushing, some compressed air, and contact cleaner goes a long way. It's actually looking like a radio now. Icon_biggrin (A word of warning to new guys - be careful with the compressed air. You can cause some serious problems if you hit the wrong thing with it... Avoid anything that looks like an adjustment screw..and don't use it under the chassis)

This is probably the last you'll see of the chassis. This is the cabinet forum, so I'll stay on topic. It's just a simple chassis anyway. Hopefully, it'll just be a boring recap and resistor replacement, followed by an alignment....
