I finally installed the repaired yoke for which Robert (ohohyodafarted) designed a new cover. As anyone with this model knows, the plastic cover on the yoke warps over time which can cause the centering rings to come loose and fall off. After being restored nine years ago, the yoke cover finally gave out and would not retain the centering rings. Robert fabricated a new styrene cover which holds the centering rings perfectly. The workmanship is superb and I am very grateful as this is one of my favorite sets. The pictures below show the yoke with the new cover next to the old warped yoke cover. The set is now working again. While I had it open I cleaned the controls and did a set up adjustment. Even after nine years of regular post restoration use it is still clean inside. The centering rings work properly now and the picture is as good as ever. This is one of the better quality metal portables.
