Hi cool photos.Ipicked up a R-274B/FRR SP-600 JX-6.Boy its been a real workout getting it going.Had to recap it get BFO working .When i got it it did not light up.Found bad fuse,replaced it and it worked! Then the fun begain. All caps replaced ,found top 3 bands not working.After much time found bad switch cleaned it now everything works but the xtal phasing.So ordered manual and found a few resistors way out ,replaced and now it works.Lst week turn it on smell something burning!.A resistor burns up.So after burning 3 more up i find and fix short! Now back to top 3 bands not working right ahh.I use it everyday sounds good on am band. Nice radios there you got bet they sound real good.Cant beat sound of tubes IMHO.Well guess i be back at the radio for more work,im thinking a few more resistors need checking befor i get it right.Shorted caps do kill resistors lol SPRMAN 55
