A new repair project: Collins 30L-1 amplifier
Well, sometimes dreams come true... as it was the day when a ham friend offered a non working Collins 30L-1 amplifier. It was missing some parts (tubes included), but overall it was pretty fine and obviously repairable.
Here you have some pictures of it:
Since I got my S-line back in 1997 or so and then my KWM-2A in 1998, I was looking for a fixer-upper 30L-1... and now it has arrived. Great!!!
I have started a new page on my WEB to deal with its restoration:
EB5AGV's Workbench: Collins 30L-1 restoration
I am actively working to find missing parts and hope to complete the write up as repair progresses.
Yes, I am a happy camper :-)!

Happy New Year!
Hi all,
I am sorry for the lack of posts. As you could imagine, that means that I am still pretty busy with the radio repairs. I have been able, though, to regain some of the lost fun factor, by filtering better what I take to repair and also by scheduling some of my own equipment repairs mixed with the other ones. As a sample, I am now working on two large test equipment projects, which will be soon appear here as sepparate posts. So life goes on :-)!
I hope all of you have a nice 2012 which fullfills your best expectations.
Sincerely,
JOSE
