Rare find! A Magnavox Brittany tv!

[Yamamaya42]

Status so far.

CRT = 16FP4 -DEAD, working to get a replacement 16LP4, slightly different, but close enough.
Chassis out, evidence of rodent activity, but minor, did not get under main chassis, did chew in audio sub, no wires chewed.

Cover of HV cage gone, dirty inside, will need lots of cleaning, FBT status unknown, wires very brittle, one snapped in half when removing HOT caps, at least one of the 500 pf caps has cracks in the surface, the one on the top of the 1B3GTs, may be from heat, good/ bad unknown, if bad, may replace with 2 1000pf (10kv) in series.

Main filter looks awful, but is not open, will try to coat it as suggested, if it fails, have a STANCOR C-2326 on the way.

All electrolytic capacitors were ordered, and have just arrived, already have a mess of film capacitors and resistors.

Will start on it Friday night, beginning with the audio sub section, since it comes out and is easy to access, then main power.

First goal point, to get the horizontal oscillator up and running.

will d/l your document when i get home.
