Moving right along...

As you can see, most of the paper caps and the 2nd IF transformer have been reinstalled. I still have two more paper caps to put in, as well as a couple more resistors and the 1st IF transformer. Oh - and I still need to rebuild that bakelite block with new X/Y safety caps.

I might work on it a bit more this evening, but not much more. I have plans at 8 pm EDT - GO Royals! Icon_biggrin
