Just an update if anyone's reading...

Recapped the electrolytics

Had to bore out the wax/tar/foil on the 3 cap can... carefully using a drillpress and a spade bit Icon_smile

Started further clean-up and touchup of the chasis...

Going to test the tubes this week... hopefully most will be operable.

Going well so far... now I gotta order some 1/2 watt resistors.... this may take 'till Xmas... Icon_mrgreen
