Restoration Project #13 - JVC 3060 Radio/TV

Описание: Is this really the 13th project? To be released on the 13th of the month? By a black cat nontheless? I hope you are not supersticous!

The Radio popped up on one of my frequent e-bay searches and sparked my interest. It contains a small (about 2.5") CRT and TV tuner along with the typical tape deck and FM/AM Radio receiver.It was rather dirty, as to be expected from what can be described as a "yard sale type" of listing, but I liked it and wanted it in better shape again. I didn't notice the missing bezel on the original listing, so I had to hunt down some pictures that showed the missing piece. Over time, I came to the conclusion that silk screen printing would be good to make a close reproduction of it. I hesitated for the other printed stuff, but trying to remove ages of grime with alcohol yielded no success and when switching to acetone... well, the road was set then.

Doing the usual cleaning and recapping too of course. And if I ever get a hold of a decent frequency analyser, I'll align the receiver circuits too. The FM one is only slightly off to begin with, and I don't really have any use for the TV one, other than the occasional demonstration to friends maybe.

Here's a link to the model on the radio museum page: https://www.radiomuseum.org/r/jvc_306...
