Another 47-1230 restoration?!
#7

Ron,
I did find your article about the feed through caps, and did follow your directions to replace it. It's at my mom's house now, and I don't know for sure when I will pull the chassis again to address the FM issue. I am building a couple of AM micro-transmitters for my radios and for hers; but I do hope to sort out the FM.


I see from the numbers that these sets were produced in pretty good numbers, are they still fairly common? I would be interested in finding a parts set or even just the chassis. Mom's cabinet is in pretty good shape, so only electronics are needed really.

I certainly hope a user out there has a dial scale that they could part with. I am willing to pay a reasonable amount for one.
