Two days ago finished the recap.
Today turned it on. The B+ is good, and there is audio in audio - I can hear the volume pot scratchiness and some hum. And the B+ droops a bit after warm-up which is good. It disappears fast after turn-off after the warm-up.
But. No stations so far.
I looked at the switches - they are black. It is hard to reach into so I just sprayed the heck out of it with Deoxit D, and exercised the switches 10 times each.
Now it is drying.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
