New Project - 39-55
#3

I pulled the chassis and right away noticed that one of the candohm resistors was fried (#41). Looked like it might have caught fire from all the black crap around the burned area.

I pulled the candohm out this is what it looked like:

Took it apart cause I was curious:

I replaced the candohm with another I had from a junk chassis ( I know. I probably should just replace it with modern power resistors.). Then I started the re-wire job there was no way I was going to power this thing up with all that nasty rubber wire. Whoever worked on it last wasnt to carefull and there was a lot of exposed wire where the rubber has flaked off so I skipped the testing phase and jumped to re-wire. A couple caps have been replaced and 2 e-caps re-stuffed along with some of the wiring at the time these pics were taken.

That big freaking mess with the more modern e-caps and the resistors was a previous repair not my doing. I had to replace the octal socket for the 6J8 OSC/DET tube. The socket was cracked and socket 3 was pushing through the back of the socket. Luckly I had a spare from that junk chassis I got the candohm from (40-205).
