Yesterday I put my second 7G605, also a bomber, on the bench.
This is the one missing the front cover.
But the Dx2 battery holder is good.
And the dial string is good. So far.
Checked the tubes: all good, and started the recap. I'd spend more time with it, but then I felt trembling inside, hands became shaky and legs weak, no - not electric shock, so I thought it might be not eating much before long time ago, so I went up for a snack and decided I had enough for today.

Those were disintegrated so I tossed them, however these seem good, so I wonder what those are and where they go.
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.
