Magnavox AstroSonic console chassis restoration

I restore a very cool Magnavox console stereo chassis for someone that bought it new in 1965. Diagnosis of very low output. I also take some time to do the alignment. Chassis number R240414.

i have one similar to that from early'65, i think Rosie O' Kelly worked on one like that

Must be in the Twin Cities, cuz I heard KDWB identify when you were tuning around on the FM dial. Thanks for this, BTW. I have my grandfather's similar Magnavox console to restore, plus a beautiful Telefunken 5083WK -- both from the early to mid '60s. Kirk in Rochester.

Right you are, I work in St Paul and live about 30 minutes north of there. Good luck with your console!

Fun, the recapping is better than yoga for relieving stress!

Do you have any idea where to find replacement glass for the radio dial plate? Mine broke and I've been looking to fix it

[@larryshaver3568]

that stereo fm board is quite abit smaller than ones in previous models

[@RobsFixitShop]

It really sounded pretty good after alignment

Do you know what the 1.2k resistor on the preamp board does?
