Finally got this recap completed of my friend's Zenith H845 radio from the 1960s. Getting the wires and resistors off the canned capacitor wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be. And, with new electrolytics, the loud buzz/hum when it turns on is completely gone. I nearly thought I screwed something up as it was dead quiet but the tubes warmed up and fittingly, "Come Together" was playing.

Working on an old #zenith #antiqueradio for a friend. Model is #H845 - top of the line for its day in the 1960s. I haven't really dabbled with a #vintage #radio yet, but, watching and learning from lots of vids. So far, tested some #tubes and replaced 3 bad ones, though I might replace them all to ensure it continues working for a while since it's for a friend and I also bought a whole set of #NOStubes from Bob Dobush's site: www.findatube.com -- highly recommend for #vacuumtubes
