This is not specifically related to either list, but I thought I would show 
how I just fixed a snall transmitting air variable cap. I hope it is 
helpful to anyone who has had this happen. If nothing else, it saved me 
from having to use a substitute or take one from another complete radio set.

Repairing the cap:

Here is a rack of nice ITT FAA AM and GE FM commo gear I just put together.

It's too hot outside, so been playing indoors...
