Hi Greg,

 I have 3 Realistic Pro-2006 that I was going to install new frequency displays in.
I have the parts. And Instructions. I would hate to see you go through repair withdrawal 
syndrome so they are yours to repair if you would like.

 Also I have 2 Yaesu FRG-7 that I was going to change caps in the audio section to
improve audio quality. The kits come with about 9 electrolytics & the instructions.

 I have 6 Yaesu FRG-100 that also have capacitor kits to improve audio,

 The free repair offer sounds great but I would like to see you get that DX-160
to work on. Do you work on these

 A question for you. I have some boatanchors that need to be gone through and re-capped
A Hallicrafters SX-28, Also An SX-23 That are very nice examples & working. There is A
 Hammarlund SP-600 that suddenly quit working. There may also be a Collins R-388.
Can you recommend anyone that does this type of work.

 Oh, Also I have 2 Zenith Trans Oceanic that need alignment. Anyone?

 Lastly is there anyone reading that works on Ten Tec? I have 2 RX-350 that need a surface
mount  resistor changes to solve a display issue. 

 Regards, Scott W3CV
