Thanks Walt
So far I have junked out several receivers, mainly
because they were worth more in the parts box then
on the shelf : ) I did get the Eddy-stone dial from one
from our group here, and the same with the three gang
tuning cap. A bunch of caps that need checking, and
probably most of the resistors but did not even try to
catalog any as of yet, because I'm still looking for some
of the harder to find parts.
I did find a decent cabinet and bent up two chassis'
one of which I like, the other to be saved for a different
project potentially 20 years from now : ) The faceplate
is cut to dimensions, but no holes drilled yet in case I
need to re-position things with the final parts being used.
So, while I am making progress, it is so slow it seems
like a standstill : ) I did find some nice older IFs but they
are the larger style probably used with octal tubes : ) Not
sure of the frequencies yet, have a shed to replace etc
before I check them out, but don't think I want to use them
in this project...
