Yes, I have all the service documentation for this set. Unfortunately, I have a backlog of about 20 sets to restore so I'm not sure when I'll get to it.

I do replace paper caps, electrolytics, seleniums and out of spec resistors, but I try to keep it looking as original as practical. For example, I restuff the can capacitors. I'm going to experiment with restuffing paper caps soon too. I also add a fuse or two for safety and to protect critical components.

I do operate my sets on a regular basis, but then it's easier for me. We still have one VHF and about 8 UHF low power analog broadcasts in my area. I also have my own low power VHF transmitter. All I need to do is turn a set on and maybe fiddle with the rabbit ears to watch it

Good luck with you projects.
Bob
