All, First thing you consider is *IF* you open it, the value is gone. Second thing is *if* you build it, the first thing is to procure all *new* electrolytic/paper capacitors. Then decide if it *was* worth what you paid for it. I'd much rather pick up a used old HRO-50-T1 and recap it, align it, replace all the out of spec resistors, and hear what the Heathkit never did hear. Do I hate Heathkit? Absolutely not! I've had Mohawks, Apaches, DX-60, the Iambic Keyer, and an SB-102 with all its pieces. Already been there and have done it.
