Here's a little update on the inside of this set.
I've finished re-stuffing the capacitors. My aluminum seams were a little sloppy on the base so I used some JB Weld for filler. I'll file it down and paint silver.
The flyback test good, but 'sings' a little. I'm not sure if that's normal while testing or maybe the HV cap is leaky?
The power transformer seems to be good too.
Finally, I decided to do something about that dirty, rusty chassis. I used Naval Jelly, Q-tips. steel wool, 600 grit sandpaper and WD40.
Be very careful when using steel wool to not get any bits into the electronics!
Any suggestions on keeping that rust from coming back? Some guys paint their radio chassis with lacquer. Does that make sense here?
