Ok folks...looking for some more advice. I’m planning to replace the rubber coated wires in the 40-180 as 50% is cracked or brittle as expected. Any advice when it comes to the IF transformers? Am I good to use solid 20ga wire there as long as I keep the length and path the same as the original wires. The rubber coated wires are actually in good shape here, but if I’m going to replace the other rubber coated wires, I feel I should replace these too. Any tips or tricks to make this process go smoothly?
