A neighbor has this old receiver that hasn't been used since 2002 and wanted advice about selling it to a young man who helps around the house. My take was don't sell it to anyone you know, as it may be hazardous to operate without first getting it checked out by a reputable electronic repair tech. I've seen several messages on this site that stated that as a minimum the capacitors should be replaced on a receiver that's 30-50 yrs old. What do you think? |
