Rick plans on turning one of the battery compartments into a work shop and the other into an activity center for groups like the Sea Cadets, Boy Scouts, or JROTC.
He said the same thing about picking one project and running with it.
I joined up with an Antique Radio forum and a lot of guys on there restore 60+ year old radios all of the time. As I expected, they say that the main thing to take care of are the capacitors. I expect the 1MC to be a long-term project. Before she'll ever work, Rick has to restore power to the Switch Board, anyway. So, there's no real temptaion to just turn it on and see what happens.
AVG, let me know if you get any further insight as to how the Torsk rigged the diving alarm contactor to directly activate the H-9 horns.
