My Bench

This is Packard Bell 604 that I replaced the filter capacitor, it's the large blue capacitor tied to the bottom of the radio chassis. You can also see some of the other bypass capacitors and resistors that I have replaced. You can tell by the bright new colors compared to the rest of the parts. The tubes are 50C5,35W4,12AT6,12BE6, and two 6BJ6's.


This is my RCA Senior vacuum tube volt meter, I prefer using the old analog type meters because they are easy to read. I use it for testing the resistors, capacitors, tubes, transformers and so forth. Although the new types of digital meters are very fast and pretty to look at. I still prefer using the older equipment, maybe it's a nostalgia thing with me.


My work bench, I know it's cluttered but, I like it that way. If it's doesn't have a radio or two on it then I'm not busy.
