The Heathkit AG-7 Audio Generator part 7: The Rebuild.
It’s time to start putting parts back in the Heathkit AG-7. I’m generally trying to follow the OEM layout, but I’ve decided to add a few terminal strips for quality of life, and to get parts off the filter capacitors.
The filters are good at this point in time, but eventually they will need to be replaced. Not having anything other than wires on their lugs will make it a lot easier to do this replacement when the time comes. I don’t have any qualms about doing this kind of mod, as I want the device to work. The only reason I’d re-stuff a can of filters is because space is at a premium, which it is in this box. That’s a future post, however!
Here are the rebuild pictures, in no particular order. The only thing left at this point is to remove a couple of mods and to wire some of the filter capacitors back into their new connections.
I hope to have this completed and ready for test by the end of next week. Stay tuned!
