I'm not normally in the "preservation" camp; I like to restore my sets and get them working, but with a Viewtone, I'm much more inclined to simply leave it alone.

I left my Viewtone alone for the most part; I replaced the 5BP4 one of my Uncles had subbed in with a dud 7EP4, but otherwise didn't screw with it. I just don't have the heart to disturb such a rare set.
