Well, I got nine capacitors replaced in the S-53A last night and today. Would keep going but I ran out of solder wick. Gonna have to wait till I can get some more. Tomorrow is Christmas so might have to wait until Monday unless Radio Shack is open tomorrow. Capacitor replacement is going well. Some of the leads are barely stretching to the connections where the old ones were but so far so good.

Nice job with the restoration. You will be very proud and have a great deal of new found confidence when you are finished.
