Hi David,
I've left it so long to comment (no internet in the new home yet...).

Regarding the IF mods... I would try it as it is and then convert it back to the original design, but that is just my opinion.

The EHT transformer, er it might last 30 mins maybe?

I have a line blocking oscillator transformer, but the frame one I have is now in the 905, perhaps if I had the original 905 transformer rewound then you could have my 1804 spare.

The original Emiscope 3/4 CRT if it is any good is way better than the TA10 IMHO.

The 1804 is the only post war set where I could not get any of the electroytics to re-form. Mind you the set had hardly been used.

I look forward to the next installment.

Cheers
Andy
