Default Re: Is it a Bush TUG.68 ?

Hello Mark
Yes it was an eBay purchase, Hereford which is local for me, cheap too.

The set doses not have a back with it so that’s something to make during the restoration.

Hi Peter
Yes there dose seem to be a lot of caps to change, the chassis is very rusty on the upper sides and I intend to bring it inside for a few weeks to air in the warm before trying for first light.

I’m confused by the big gold can on the top of the receiver, I’m assuming it’s electrolytic which isn’t listed in the service information or shown on the chassis view, no mater I can check it our when the restoration begins. When will that be, I made a new years resolution not to start any new project till the current ones are finished (TV22, 1975 Hotpoint tumble dryer and Hoover 3110 washing machine), yes, what ever springs to mind as I found myself vacuuming it out yesterday, strictly for de-Arachnid treatment I never picked up a screwdriver once.

Cheers chaps for the positive identification

Lee
