The horizontal sync/driver board is now recapped and I'm now on the vertical sweep board. I can tell that this one is going to be a little more difficult to get to as there are several wires that will need to be disconnected before I can get the board out far enough to replace all the caps. At some point, someone did a sloppy job of recapping this board with a mix of Sprague (black) and Cornell-Dublier (green) tubular paper caps. I did manage to replace one cap before deciding to call it a night.

After I'm finished with this board, it will be time to do the sound board.

After that, maybe my terminal strips from AES will have arrived and I can replace the electrolytics and the selenium rectifiers. I've not yet decided if I'm going to attempt to restuff the old electrolytic cans or if I'm going to wire the new caps behind the chassis with the old cans left in place for looks.

The more I dig into this set, the more I discover that it spent lots of time in a repair shop.
