CR100 to Restore,

[Shaman]

    Hi, Les, i am still contemplating valve change, as KTW61,s are drying up slowly, the EF89, looks a better solution, one of my CR100,s has had some valve changes, allready, the best thing is to stick all the valves one at a time on the valve tester, and work from there, i would think quite a few caps need changing resistors as well, if out of spec, well over or under +-20%. the one CR100 has all origiional valves the other quite a few, those needing screening cans have by the looks of it alllways had them, top can included on each valve. i know the switch assy must be removed, i am dreading this, but it has to be done as one waxie,s looks bad, and the underside of the valve bases need to be exposed to change components and re-solder etc, i will get round to this, i have a few sets to catch up on, i have a pilot radio on the bench having some valve bases and components changed, please may i contact you as soon as i start stripping the set for its refurb. This one is my bedside radio at the moment....regards....Alan.
