Getting close to being finished with the sweep circuits:



I have nothing to say other than "phew!" Somehow I managed to avoid singing any stray wires with the iron which I am fairly proud of . Even though they all tested OK, I opted to replace most of the larger power resistors simply to free up some space.



Power supply choke reinstalled and all wiring roughly re-dressed how it was before.

The next step before I power it up is to restuff the power supply electrolytics.





Nobody will ever know...

Honestly, as I go through these caps, I somewhat regret cutting them apart; they aren't dried out at all and the paper/foil are in great shape. But the rubber seals look pretty bad and I worry about them failing in short order after so many years of unuse. In any case, they'll be more serviceable in the future.
