A friend of mine gave me a old hallicrafters model S -40A receiver awhile back. I havent had a chance to inspect it closely. Its a heavy rascal indeed. Has anyone here ever restored one of these particular models? Its missing a couple knobs, but he told me it worked a few yrs ago on a quick test powerup. Wondering if these sets are really worth restoring anymores? If not, nice spare parts set anyways. Your opinions appreciated.

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
