[R-390] Out from the shadows *Revisited* ...

[Mike Castellana]

I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone that took
the time to offer help, here on the list and
privately. 

I rebuilt both filter caps and replaced C553 yesterday
morning (sunday). Except for sleep time radio has been
left on and seems to be performing well...  All
functions work and radio is sensative across all
bands. Unfortunately transformer is still humming. Had
a great phone conversation with Rick Mish where he
patiently answered every question I could think of
(and a bunch I couldn't). He's of the mind that I
should simply replace power supply module. I have a
couple of calls out, if these fall through do any of
y'all have a *clean*, functional module you'd be
willing to part with? Digging around radio it'a become
clear it'a actually an EAC from the 67' (mid) run
(even though it's tagged Imperial) with this in mind
an EAC module would be too good to be true.

My near term plan is to replace module and then live
with radio for awhile simply letting it run. Then I'll
start thinking about alignment.

Thank you again for all you help.

Best regards,
Mike Castellana
