The photo below taken the 28th of August is of my striking 1962 RCA Victor tube clock radio who I named Gru (after Despicable Me) just after he underwent a successful filter capacitor replacement "operation" at my local electronics store! The best part of my entire experience was getting to watch the entire operation before my eyes! It was a landmark experience for me as I aspire to one day repair electronics like a pro. It's unfortunate that many people my age have never heard the sweet sound of a tube radio. I bought Gru back in 2011 and before last month I had never realized how beautiful he could sang. Now that Gru has been reborn I hope to move on to repairing my other tube radios that have faulty filter capacitors. Someday I hope to hear them all sing in harmony.
