RE: Oscilliscope question
HeathKit was a dream at that time although I had a lloyds shortwave receiver which did well. Still have it, it's in the garage. Did a lot of soldering and wiring back then but never the kits.

It just never looked techy/military enough. :-)

So now I can get heathkit.

1) It is disassembled down to the boards.

2)Face, glass bezel, tuner cords, transistors marked and removed.

3) Speaker out, bad solders cleaned up and repaired.

4) Tuners cleaned, as well as selectors.

5) Boards washed and cleaned including transistor sockets.

6) deoxit contact, volume and tuner preservers to be added. Deoxit gold for the power socket and transistor sockets. New tuner cord to be added.

7) Wax the case an metal front fascia.

8) move the handle from the side to the top.

At step 5 and house chores todo! So on hold.

Then reassembly with new caps, speaker and mounting bracket.

Should be done next week.

cheers, geoff
