Work Performed
Receiver stripped down and fully inspected.
All switches and controls cleaned and cycled numerous times with different cutting agents and lubricants to ensure proper operation
All lamps upgraded to LEDs.
All boards completely hand re-soldered and flux cleaned to prevent crosstalk
Both main filter/ripple capacitors replaced with stock value 20,000UF/50VDC
All 178 electrolytic capacitors replaced with all high quality Panasonic, Nichicon, and ELNA RFSII Silk—audio graded types used in signal path
Both speaker protection relays replaced with new 48VDC Omron type
The main power switch replaced with 7A E-Switch
AM/FM Section recapped.
DOLBY Module recapped.
6 fuses replaced to prevent false alarm failure due to age
All nine adjustment potentiometers in the amplifier section and on the power supply replaced with Multi turn type for accurate adjustments
All 8 output transistors replaced and installed with greaseless insulators
All 7 transistors on the power supply were replaced
