I am finally getting this set back together. I painted that gold trim on the front and back piece, but put another coat on the front piece today, so won't take the tape off that until tomorrow.

I saw a picture of a newer 19" model and saw that that unit on the sweep board I replaced was instead made up of discrete caps and resistors mounted on a piece of circuit board sitting perpendicular to the main sweep board. (I wonder if these units were a common problem - for philco to quit using them) It looked much neater than what I did, and if I ever have to take that board up again, I might redo it like that. But these boards are such a pain in the butt to take up and down, I'm not doing it unless I have to because something else breaks.
