Channel master

[newhallone]

I was at my parents and I grabbed my Grandmothers Channel Master portable 1966 that she used at camp to watch her "Stories" I never liked it but alas it has grown on me. So I took it down from the attic of the garage because it was getting covered in wood shavings. I took the Channel Master dust cover off and blew it off with the air hose a little. It used to work but now I think there is a power supply problem. I got the sams for it the other day and looked it over and wow. A billion caps! the circuit boards say Sanyo on them. I guess on something like this do the main caps and then replace only as needed down the road. I have visions of a multitude of bulging caps like I remember seeing in a 70's Sony video camera.
