Hi Ben,

I don't think it's quite that easy. Since the ham mods are unknown, it is hard
to separate the ham mods (unofficial) from those mods made by the works (if any)
to enable use of the AC supply. An audio output stage was fitted that is
connected to the same supply also. The circuit is next to impossible to trace
out because it is a very crowded rat's nest. The power supply was bad enough.
Also, the wire colors have faded and the rubber has become brittle. Also,
resistors may have drifted and capacitors become leaky or worse. I will give it
a try, but am not optimistic.

Thanks for the suggestion though.
