with reverence I would disagree, the DAC 90 and 90A are a desirable set (not as much as they used to be) but desirable all the same.
I would say start with something with a TX, a Murphy 242 for example, or any woody, they are quite common, just to learn circuits and components, then it does not matter if mistakes are made, then can come the Dac's.
You've written what I was about to, Mark. I'd like one but wouldn't dare do anything much to it until I've got some more experience behind me purely because they are 'Worth' so much.
I've a hankering for one in a wrecked case that I could stick together with fibre-glass and filler and then spray green.
in a way you are right mark its just that dac90as are pos the easyest sets to repair and if your starting out it can be a great confedence boost to get your first set working with out too mutch trouble
