Admiral 20X11 restoration

[bandersen]

I've been getting little shocks when my hand brushes against the CRT. I figured it was just static build up since the air is dry.
When I removed the CRT to replace the rock hard mounts, I discovered the CRT grounding wire was missing!
Here's one from another set. It's a short, curved piece of strong wire that hooks into the chassis and makes firm contact with the aquadag CRT coating.

I fabricated a replacement and no more shocks

With the CRT out I was able to scrape of the old mounts and clean up the chassis. Then I cut some new mounts from a sheet of neoprene and glued them down with GC rubber-to-metal glue.



I also popped out the tuner for some cleaning and replaced a few out of spec resistors. It's pretty cramped in there!


Then, I finished up the alignment. Here's the equipment I used.


Here are some post alignment screen shots.


I'm calling the electronics of this set done. Now on to cleaning up the cabinet.
