Scott 800B: The tuner
#1

Finally pulling up the first 800B tuner. The biggest thing I see with this is the solenoid seen in the picture below. Aside from the missing coil, I can only see two wires to connect to four connections. There is also one of the plastic cased electrolytics that is broken, but I'm sure I can deal with that.

   

This is the heaviest doggone thing I've ever lifted. I've got complete old receivers that are feather light compared to this tuner chassis alone. I like to have cut my fingers off when this tuner chassis fell on them while trying to manoeuver it to pick it up.
