38-116 Code 121 Powering Up Help
#39

37/38-116 are in fact pretty intimidating even for an experienced restorer, let alone for others. And the 38-690 I am dealing with right now is even more so. Although the 116 is harder to recap due to the way its RF chassis is made.
And then some folks like Russ restore Z-1000 with full wire-stripping, re-plating etc. Not to mention the cabinet work that is downright spiritual experience, like climbing Mount Everest.
So.....this too shall pass, just don't let the scope of the project intimidate you, concentrate on the task at hand. Works for me. Icon_smile

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
