Beautiful! Gives me hope....bet it sounds good. The capacitor boxes on those things are a bear the first time you gut one, but after that it's not so bad. I have done a model 296 and a neutrodyne. I found a guy here in Roanoke Va. selling original shop bulletins for these sets from an old radio repair place out of Akron Ohio. They show lots of cap, resistor values and the layout of the cap box that you don't get with the Rider shematics, thought Rider Perp. is awesome on the whole as a resource.
