Default Yet another Bush DAC90A

Picked up a DAC90A at a local Auction as it appeared to be in good condition, case unmarked, back intact and original 2-pin p!ug - but I know that appearances can be deceptive! Loads of useful information, advice and guidance on this Forum which even extends to modifications, so I know that I'm in safe hands.

Initial batch of pictures shown below - looks like this set hasn't been touched for quite some time?

The third picture of the chassis underneath clearly shows that C18, "that capacitor" has seen better days!

The fourth picture below is a first attempt at a close up of C22, the Mains filter capacitor, which has undergone some trauma in the past and has acquired a layer of dust since then. The Output Transformer is also lurking in the background under dust and cobwebs!

I'll need to get all that dust hoovered up and everything cleaned before I can even contemplate taking any readings!

Wish me luck - hope I have better luck than the Bush AC91.
