much the same way. The biggest thing I've been seeing is that those old disk/ceramic caps are pretty much shot. I swapped all of them in the preamp section and there was a major improvement.Now, I've been working my way through the demodulator - there's only a handfull of caps there - and the depth and quietness of the local classical station really improved, too.
I'm thinking about working my way through the IF strip, too, for the same reason.
BTW, in 1965, Mac issues some factory updates to the MX-110's tuner section. You might want to check with Roger Russell about any for the MR-65, from whom I received copies of that documentation.
Cheers,
David
