[Boatanchors] Well, There Was This BC-669 In The Barn....

[Meir WF2U]

Great barn find! Nice to get it working! I have a similar barn find, a BC-669D, the model with the CW option, with the power supply and cables. I need to start working on it. Cosmetically it's decent, but dusty. 
Expect a small bucket's worth of caps will need replacing, but we shall see...
