Default SP-600 from hell:need knobs, handles

I've always been a sucker for lost causes and high tube count
boatanchors, so when I came across this SP-600 I had to
have it. This beast had been sitting on the floor of a damp garage
for decades unprotected. I spent 3 hour cleaning out mouse
turds and black widow webs. There's still an elusive black widow
that I haven't been able to kill. The top of the chassis isn't just
dusty, its crusty dust thats been hardened with mouse ****!
Yuck! Is it restorable? Maybe, with a lot of work. I'll check
the IF's and all other coils and transformers today.

The good news is its complete except for the crystal phasing
and main tuning knob as well as the handles. If anyone has
these for sale or swap, let me know.

Oh yeah, its a JX-26. Just like the one I rebuilt last winter. ;-)

Steve
