Hi Gert,

thanks for the reply. Great to 'meet' another R-390A user. Just been in and
out of one of my 390A´s, exchanging all the old leaky capacitors and a good
number of resistors that were way out of spec. The SP-600 JX17 is next in
line. Got him only a week ago. Even though performance is OK I better bring
him up to specs again. Also needs a realignment. Probably hasn´t been done
since 1953.

As soon as I get into MW I shall have no reservations screaming for help ;-)

P.S. Have you changed C´s 553 and 549 in yours ? If you want to keep your
filters, it´s a good idea...
