As my son works in the area I had thought about going for it myself. Sound like it would have been more work than I would have wanted to take on.

Before spending any time and money on the set there is one test that needs to be carried out. The final IF transformer has a habit of going S/C between primary and secondary. From what I have read on here no-one has managed to repair one or find a suitable substitute. Fingers crossed that yours is OK.

Good luck and keep posting your progress.
