Personally, the key for true portability is low power consumption and that sub 4w consumption is astonishing. Perhaps submit this restoration story to the BVWS bulletin.
Hi Dom,
certainly something to consider for the future but in the meantime the erratic vision AGC circuit must be sorted out. The AGC controlled first IF stage AF114 transistor will be replaced first.
As the board has to come out it might be good policy to replace all the AF114s in the five stage IF amplifier?

DFWB.
