I have a nice looking SX 25 that needs recapping and refurbishing. Cosmetically good looking.
My question is directed to those who have refurbished an SX 25 receiver. What is the degree of difficulty 
Compared to other Hallicrafters receivers? Are there any pitfalls or particularly difficult areas to recap, such as the RF section?

I have an SX 28 ahead of the SX25 and numerous other Hallicrafters receivers  to recap such  as S40A, S40B,  S76, SX71, S53, SX96, SX 100, SX 101.  I plan to start on the SX 25 very soon.

Your input will be appreciated. 73, John, K5PGW
