If you decide to refurbish your AN/URM-25D, there's an excellent
article in the Hollow State Newsletter, written by Dallas
Lankford. The generator is inconveniently small for easy repairs,
and the article guides you through refurbishment, avoiding many
pitfalls. I worked on mine, replacing almost all capacitors (because
they were bad, not a shotgun replacement), most resistors, and the
germanium diodes.
The Hollow State News stopped publication around 2002 as the Internet
became more popular, and I think Dallas is no longer active. He
wrote many interesting articles in the past, and I'm guessing he was
involved in refurbishing AN/URM25-D's used at an University in Texas.
Maybe someone has the article on-line. If not, and if you are
interested, I'll scan mine.

Does anyone know of an Internet source with this info. It would save
me scanning time. My scanner doesn't have a feeder.
