Still too lazy to tinker with the remaining 1.5 filter cap sections, I continued on the blocks. All but two are complete. I have not touched the two mica blocks, and they'll stay that way, unless there's trouble down the road.

I prematurely replaced a 1Meg resistor, assuming it was high. After snipping it out, it measured 970k! I couldn't believe my eyes...oh well. Have I mentioned how ugly these new components are? Icon_biggrin

I like these blocks, since they're so durable. A propane torch wouldn't harm them. Not to mention, I'm not dinking around the tube sockets, either. Philco employees did an amazing job too - making these connections. All components and wires were really secure, with at least 1 plus wraps...absolute quality!

The remaining two blocks will be done tomorrow. Decision making time after that, RF deck or remaining filter sections. I'm leaning on the filter caps and hoping to get creative enough to avoid a re stuff! I don't have replacement RF deck grommets either!

By the way, I'm listening to the Indians, on 1100kC, right now! 8)

Go Royals!
