John,
Thank you for the comprehensive 10 point step, with Jeffreys already valuable assistance and now this,it certainly hits the spot with regards to my first post, where to start.
I spent most of last evening and some of the night reading various members TV restoration write ups and studying the Bush and Trader service sheets.
The Bush TV62 service manual is by far the better one and I shall be working from that. I like the way the schematic shows the different stages and labels them for you and even gives the component values on the actual schematic, something the trader does not, it's ordered and OldTickTock likes order.
When I have enough experience I guess dripping caps will not disturb me so much, as at the moment I keep getting the urge to snip and replace.
Thanks to all members who have publicly and privately given their kind words of encouragement,it's much appreciated and If theres one thing I don't do, it's give up.
Chris
