Motorola 9T1

[jeyurkon]

I purchased a 9T1 from an ad on EarlyTv.org. Would anyone have a complete scan like the one that I've attached? I'd like to print one out to use.

I knew the bakelite had some cracks before I purchased it. It appears to have been well packed, but it arrived in many pieces. I'll be busy working with a jig-saw puzzle.

One section of the ballast tube is bad. I could repair the break. I also thought about rebuilding it. Does anyone know what alloy was used for the resistance wire? Rider shows the cold resistance, but I'm not sure what it would be in operation.

One reason I might not want to rebuild it is something I read from amperite. They list ballast lifetimes of 2,000 to 5,000 hours.

I suppose I should check the 8BP4 before I put much effort into this.
