This all too familiar tale is yet another example of utterly incompetent individuals diving into a radio and doing just about everything they can to jigger it up.In this instance, not just in the electrical sense, but the vandalism of the cabinet and dial. It's really quite astonishing that people who lack the most elementary skills and knowledge will rush in like this - another example of Darwin's theory of the non-survival of the stupidest. That said, it's always very satisfying to bring a set back to almost 'factory fresh' condition, and this is an excellent example of what can be achieved in competent hands. There's something very satisfying (to me anyway) in bringing a set back from the brink of being condemned to landfill.
Looking forward to seeing a pic of the finished radio Dennis!
