Quite a bit of progress today on the amp/PSU chassis. Replaced all the rubber wire in the connecting harness. Also completed the restuff of the large 40 uF under chassis electrolytic cap.
I looked at one of the larger paper caps, and it came apart in a messy sort of way, so I have decided against restuffing them. It also came to light that the parts box is short of a few values needed to complete this job, so I'll order up what is needed.
Lastly, I frightened myself by looking under the main radio chassis at all the caps and rubber wire hiding therein and awaiting replacement.
Cheers
Ed
