Hello again, as of right now I've gently cleaned removed the chassis and cleaned the cabinet as well; It all seems to be in pretty good shape. The current plan of action is to remove any of the capacitors that have been suggested in this thread and to order replacements along with the parts needed for the lamp limiter. Then I begin testing!
For those wondering, there were a number of other sets in the heap and potentially a collection of valves and other related equipment, but all that's at home with me now is the VHF61, a Peto Scott H52 and a Pye Fenman.
I've recorded all the Hunts caps to replace. Is it worth replacing all of the paper and wax ones too? I've heard that the small caps generally don't malfunction, but is it worth replacing them anyway? Also, is 400V adequate for all capacitors in the circuit?
