Hi there Audion 1908

The coils in the modulator can certainly be replced by similar ones. You will have to take turns off the windings of the IFT's to get them on to 45MHz.
I used iron dust toroids in mine. If you can't get the integrated circuits, let me know. I have a couple in my box.

I will be writing up the restoration project on the TV62 because I have promised to give a talk to Sutton Coldfield Radio Society in a few weeks' time. The set is working really well with a modest amount of boost to the heater. It still does have a partially shorted heater but not by half.

Regarding the TV36C (17" not 23" as I said), The seller says he would like to see it restored - not broken up for parts. I am arranging to collect it next week and will decide then how to proceed.
