[ForSale-Swap] Grid-Dip Meter Rebuild

[n2lxm at juno.com]

Greetings All,


 Dose any one have any thoughts on converting and old tube type Grid-Dip
meter to Solid State?. I have a Millen 90651 GDO that I purchased back in
High School, it still works well and I use it often on the bench. But now
with the weather turning warmer I want to be able to use my Millen
Antenna Bridge out side. And I am getting tired of pulling an AC
extension cord out every time I want to play with the antennas. I
purchased another 90651 from the " E " place, it has a bad power
transformer, but I knew that went I purchased it. My idea is to strip it
down, clean it up and rebuild it along the lines of the Millen 90652. I
have found plenty of information on the 90652, schematic and parts list.
It seems that the tuning capacitor is the same in all the Millen series.
Any thoughts and idea's will be welcomed.
