Baird Garrick
Hi All,
I've just obtained this Baird Garrick.
There are only a couple of valves present and the tube has been necked.
Also there was a mouse nest in the PSU section at the bottom of the set.
However it is not all bad. The cabinet has survived quite well and still has a good finish. There is no sign of damp (appart from mouse wee). All the electronics seems to be present.
I made a start by removing the mouse nest and cleaning away all the droppings.
The PSU although corroded on top due to the mice, actually looks like new underneath. There are signs that there was once a mains EHT transformer fitted, although there is no socket for and EHT rectifier on the PSU chassis.
I checked the date on one of the electrolytics to be March 1948.
I would apreciate any service info or photos that anyone has. A photo of the back cover could be nice for a start.
Cheers
Andy
