Default Re: Roberts RT1 rejuvenated!

My only comment is that it probably looks better in the pictures than it actually is! Ideally the cabinet should have been stripped and recovered, at least a new wooden strip fitted to the rear cover to take the hinge, and redundant holes left by added rear panel connectors filled in, plus a green carrying strap better fitted than the black one I used. If it were my radio, I might have undertaken all of these tasks, but it's someone else's, and they are happy to have it cleaned up, repaired and working, which is why I didn't go any further.
