Hello Chris,

Not to worry about the incorrect timebase PCB and LOPT; you weren't to know. It will still yield plenty of chassis and cabinet set-specific parts to keep my restored and complete BT342 going.

I have since been working on the Sobell ST197-DS set you let me have and I hope to obtain a picture today or tomorrow (just reforming the two HT electrolytic "cans" at the moment). Luckily, I have a good LOPT for it. This will be documented in a new thread.

Regards,

Dazzlevision
