Default Re: AR88 Restoration.

Ah, I just noticed when I read 'Engraved lettering' With an engraved panel, that AR88 is a very early one, and lo and behold the photo shows the all-yellow tuning scale.

Most AR88s have silk-screened labelling and tuning scale that alternates light/dark bands up the frequency ranges. Only the very early ones have the scales all the same.

The front panels are also copper-plated under their paint.
