Default Re: Bush VHF61 restoration

I restored a VHF62 last year (same chassis as the VHF61 but in a wooden case rather than a Bakelite one).

The set was originally very deaf on MW/LW and didn't work at all on VHF. Further to the previous two comments replacing the Hunts capacitors (one at a time as suggested earlier) was all that was needed to fix it - when I tested the removed capacitors afterwards every single one was either horribly leaky or just plain broken.

It was worth the effort though - the set is a good performer and with VHF capability is actually still useful.
