Default Collins 30L1

Been sitting some 10 to 15 years here. A thought about starting to re-build
it....
Any source that is known for electro's or any other essential parts that
should be done as part of this re-build?
Unit is very good cosmetics, only need assist with electronic end. tnx

The rectifier diodes and capacitors will probably need replacement. The
large, axial lead caps used in this, and other amplifiers, are getting
harder to find. I currently use infinitely less expensive "snap in"
capacitors of the required value. For diodes, I use 1N5408, rated at
1000v/3A. The snaps require some creative wiring, but they will fit in, OK.

Do you already know that it has a problem?
Don't fix something that ain't broke.
Bring it up slow with a variac, and see how goze it.
