[R-390] Re: Wiring question

[John H. Gindlesberger]

Thanks for all the help regarding the wiring for the Carrier Level adj. =
pot.  I should have been able to figure it out, but I tend to work in =
high anxiety mode--anticipating that I will do, or have done, something =
which can not be easily repaired.  It affects one's clear thinking--as =
does the damn memory fade.

Any way, I worked up the courage to replace the paper caps in hopes of =
curing an intermittant noise problem.  The audio chassis went well, then =
the IF.  It was much tighter work, but I got them all replaced--but the =
noise remained.  Breathing deeply and refreshing my memory with the =
R-390A video, I removed the RF chassis.  My heart is still pounding!!  =
Will I ever get that beast back in?  I see there are 3 Black Beauties in =
it, so today they will be replaced.

I also noticed that the small coaxial cables look a bit suspect--cracked =
insulation.  Can those little BNC-like connectors be used again with new =
cable?  Are the cables available from some enterprising soul?  Well, =
that's down the road.  I'm hopeful these last caps. will do the trick.
