Hi Guys,
I would like to have my 660 chassis overhauled. I used to use Russ Turner here in Palm Springs, CA. for several other radios over the years. He was very good but ill health has forced him to discontinue this venture. Can anyone here recommend someone that's not to far from me?
Thanks,
Greg

Have you tried contacting the Southern California Antique Radio Society?

http://www.antiqueradios.org/index.html

They should be able to point you to someone in that area...
