<p>Thanks. I did not have a chance to dig out the parts and provide a quote including shipping between trips. This trip will be 2-weeks. Hopefully I will remember to dig out the part and send a quote shortly after I return.</p>

<p>Thanks Ralph. I am away from my resources at the moment and will hopefully get back to you with a total cost for the push button assembly plus three push buttons by the end of this week.</p>

Hi Norman<br />
Had a look and I am way off on the serial number.<br />
Its17666<br />
The build date is right I think .<br />
It is stamped on the tuning assembly cover.<br />
The left hand as you look at it push button assembly has had damage to the brown insulating vertical assembly<br />
This is the one that mounts the contacts for the sliding biscuits<br />
Looks to me as a old telephone switching engineer as its a one piece assembly but I may be wrong<br />
Also would like a new cover for T3 on the receiver and T7 cover on the output…

I was going to get them repaired here in new Zealand but if you have some I would be interested in buying them<br />
My shipping address is<br />
Ralph Kearton<br />
15 Tennyson avenue<br />
Takapuna<br />
North shore<br />
Auckland<br />
0622<br />
New Zealand<br />
I think the best way is to pay into your bank account so if you could give me the details along with the swift code.<br />
If that will not work I can do pay pal<br />
Also I can get my old mate just up the road from you Battleground WA to pay you and I will fix him up<br />
Many thanks Norman for all your help<br />
I understand that this set is one of 2 of this model in new Zealand so it's a bit special<br />
Regards<br />

Hi Keith<br />
I have done the electros only<br />
I put new ones in and left the old ones in place<br />
Its running really well so I am a bit scared to do more until a full upgrade next winter<br />
I have only the chassis and the speaker as the shipping to new Zealand was too much<br />
My main jobs are to mount up everything investigate more recapping and repair transit damage<br />
It took a hit and I need one set of push buttons and a new dial glass<br />
I see that radio daze are doing the glass but if any body reading this can…

I see that radio daze are doing the glass but if any body reading this can help me out with a push button assembly I would be most gratefull.<br />
Don't know how the diagrams I have would scale up .<br />
They look quite good through.<br />
As you will be doing yours before mine would be most intereseted to hear how you get on .<br />
I will email the stuff I have to you now<br />

<p>Keith, My long narrative was intended to orientate you, not worry you. Start with the operating instructions as you have the radio in front of you on your work table to get oriented. It helps to color code some of the circuits in the diagrams: in particular, the AC power feed to the on/off relay, high voltage B+ wires, the medium voltage B+ circuits. Working through the 800B…</p>

<p>Keith, My long narrative was intended to orientate you, not worry you. Start with the operating instructions as you have the radio in front of you on your work table to get oriented. It helps to color code some of the circuits in the diagrams: in particular, the AC power feed to the on/off relay, high voltage B+ wires, the medium voltage B+ circuits. Working through the 800B is great training to enable you to tackle about any Scott you will ever encounter. And the 800B is the considered the last of the classic Scotts because E H was still in charge during its design. It has modern FM, phono input and the TV input is a good "Aux in" for a CD player or Ipod with very good powerful audio to enjoy when you are done.</p>
