TS-14 daily driver

It's alive again! This TS-14 has been a daily driver for about three years until the horizontal started to "Christmas tree" or "skeet". It was recapped a while back and I admit I have taken it's reliability for granted recently. One of the
.001 capacitors in the horizontal AFC circuit developed a mechanical intemittant open driving the horizontal crazy. The picture is far better than the camera shows. It's dated Sept 16, 1948. I replaced all the vertical and horizontal caps years ago with 1600 volt versions to make the set stable. It comes on and plays without need of adjustment!
