[ARC5] RBM-5 HF parts needed?

[hwhall@aol.com]

I have a donated RBM-5 receiver, the 2-20 MHz one, that I'm thinking may be destined to be a parts unit. To help me make up my mind whether or not to attempt restoration, I'm wondering if there's a number of people who might need parts.

Inspection shows it was probably stored on a basement or garage floor & there was minor flooding. There's some corrosion on the front panel bottom. On the cabinet bottom inside, there's fine tan silt. Also some was deposited in the RF tuning boxes, but other than a small amount of oxidation spots on the box walls, the wiring & the switch parts & trimmer caps are all bright. I think the water was no more than 1/2 inch deep, from what I observe.

So, parts needed or no? (I may even need parts, myself.)
