Hello again
Well got a late start today, but managed to get the filter caps done C603
and C606. This was a learning experience as one might say. After I got
several emails from list members, I decided to give it a try. Once I got the
can off, I could tell for sure that it needed to be redone due to all the
corrosion in the bottom on two lugs. The other one was not as bad but when
ahead and done it also. After I got the things cleaned up and the caps
soldered on, I had to put them back in the radio to see if I did something
wrong. Well all worked, and matter of fact it works the best now that I have
heard it so far. Pulled the caps back out and put some JB Weld on the cans
and put them in C-Clamps for the night. Hope the JB Weld holds good. Not
quite as bad as I thought it would be but it was a major job for a beginner
like myself. Glad its done, hope its awhile before I do another set hi. I
want to Thank Walter, Adam, Al, Tom and several other list members for all
the help, could have not done it without the help. Well looks like its on to
the IF Deck now.
Thanks
Ronnie
