>I picked up a good condition ART-13/B at Dayton this past weekend.

>1. It has the CDA-T Crystal Oscillator installed. Do you have a manual or

>anyone used this with a crystal on 3885 kc?
>
>2. I have most Electric Radio issues but I'm specifically missing ER #175
>Dec 03 that describes the mod to remove the locking current on the
>auto-tune motor. Can anyone provide the modification instructions?
>
>3. The auto-tune lower cover is a slightly different worn (washed out)
>color than the rest of the radio. How do you advise restoring the front
>panel to an original uniform color? I've seen suggested using an Acrylic
>Wash of Mars Black paint to make things uniform. I'm concerned about
>damaging the silk screen on the panel. Is there a better method? I'm very
>experienced and achieve great results with applying new wrinkle paint but
>would prefer not to do something that radical.
>
>All advice most welcome and thank you in advance. This will be my second
>ART-13.
