Here is my lastest project to restore.
This  is a TX-1 transmitter from heathkit. Made in the late 50\'s.

KI4RVH:
Looks like it is in pretty good shape Buddy!

JADE:
To think my wife thinks I waste my time on things she\'s not interested in.  How do you guys get away with this?  I need to know the secret to life beyond the mundane. LOL

Wish I was good with tubes. I wouldn't mind doing a restore on something like this.
I have a Uniden Madison that is pretty much unmolested. It has channels and slider, but other than a repair to the clock, it has not been touched. I works good now, but I want to re-cap it, beef up the power supply some and remove the clock and insert a frreq counter. I will probably also change it to blue leds, but maybe not.
I think restoring a tube radio from the 50's would be something to be proud of.
Good luck.. keep us updated
