The new stud for the handle fixing is finished. It is much better than it was when the radio arrived. I would say it is looking completely original now. The electronics are staying original as well, as it all seems to be working. Just gave it a very slight tweak to the aerial trimmer, at the hf end of MW.
Here is the "fix" to repair the handle that someone else did.
The radio picks up a hell of a lot of interference, it buzzes constantly, almost as loud as the stations. It may be the power supply I am using, it is the only one with a centre tap so I can give the radio +9v 0v -9v.
Job done.

Just tried it on 2 PP9s using patch leads to connect them up and there is less interference.
