Default A Challenge for the Repair Gurus

Patient: Fisher 700T Solid-state US-made Receiver from the mid-60s.
Source: Vintage Radio Swap-meet, Parsipanny, NJ
Cost: $5 at the afterwards-auction
Discovered Problem: Saturated with steel-wool shavings.
Symptoms: Right channel distorted (I cleaned what I saw, but
discovered that the shavings got as far as transistor sockets), and
the FM goes in and out. When in, its fine.
Weight: +/- 25 pounds. 30# boxed for shipment.

For the cost of shipping, I will send it to the first taker. The
deadline is Noon tomorrow, EDT. Shipping will be by FedEx ground or
USPS Parcel Post, whichever is cheaper based on the weight. So use a
calculator to your Zip-code from 19095.

Yes, it has all its knobs. If no one wants it, I will flog the knobs
and dump the rest. Life is too short to deal with this given the rest
of the stuff in the queue.

Thanks in advance.
