I after the GE detour, I finally got back on this set. Replaced the 2 .47's in the fly and put the cage back on (to avoid any oops's with the fly out in the open).

Mostly has brown drops which often are ok, so I went about replacing some the ceramic tube elmenco caps (some were replacements done in the past).

there was a bumble bee on the primary of the audio out, and there is one in the IF that looks to be a pita to do as its got the solder on bottom shield. I am tempted to just do a j hook from the top replacement, I dont like unsoldering those covers, alway worry about a slip of the iron then melting down some insulation. there are a couple single electro as well, one on the video bd and one in the chroma section. those will get replaced as well before the initial power up. Nice to see the use of better caps on this vs the CTC-5 which had ALL papers.
