This a start-to-finish restoration that involved some major mechanical workarounds. The LMO had to be opened up and tinkered with to get it to move across the full frequency spread (an issue that might occur on any SB rig). The fine-tune window was disintegrating and wouldn't hold the pulley. Function switch shot. Wow, not an easy rig to bring back to life, but many lessons learned.

In replacing the can cap I'm using this multi-cap board, check it out: https://w8aor.com/online-store/ols/products/4-in-1-multi-cap-board

With a day job, two businesses and a restoration mania, I don't have time to check these comments very often, but find my email address (N5OLA on QRZ) and feel free to reach out.
