Thanks for the advice radio and otherwise. I’ve cleaned it up a little more. Reflowed the solder. Blew out the junk. Cleaned up with a small brush and some de-oxit.
In general I’ve concluded all we can do is just be peaceful and try to enjoy ourselves. Having a nice week although the county fair was really a rain out day yesterday. Someone won 1st place in the antiques building with a tired looking Echophone. Next year I should enter my fully restored Sparton 617 and take the grand prize.
