I have a RAK that is in good shape except for a missing filament voltage
meter
(someone tastefully filled the hole with a black crinkle piece of metal and
a green
lamp. It's well done, but I'd still like to restore the meter).
Then I have 1.5 RAL's. One is is fairly poor shape but is complete. The
other
is in better condition - but some lunatic stripped out the audio filter
inductors.
If I recall correctly, between the RAK+2RAL, I have three working dB meters
but only 1 filament voltage meter. (Open for trades if I can find the box).
The complete RAL is working, but none of the switches or potentiometers are
very reliable. I replaced the regen pot, which helped a lot. Still pondering
the
best plan to come up with one solid RAL that looks OK. Since the second
RAL is missing vital parts, I'm pondering doing something like keeping the
TRF/detector intact and building a small amplifier/audio filter unit into
the large
amount of available space.
