Good work Rob, nice sets these. Pleased to see another one saved from oblivion.
Its a personal choice of course, but I'm in the opinion that it is better to change all the wax and electrolytic capacitors whilst the chassis is on the bench. I appreciate many prefer to test and just replace those necessary, but I find even if an old wax capacitor tests fine, it will still be leaky to some extent and probably cause problems further down the line. For that reason I usually change them all at the same sitting.
Well done again!
Regards
