All, The Viking II is easy to work on and renovate in my experience despite the fact that things do get a bit tight down in the speech amp. However, my primary interest is in old military radios and in this category I would nominate the Navy TCS (receiver and transmitter). These things are simple, built like a battleship and almost always work regardless of neglect and age.
Never had a DX-100 or B&W 5100. Restored a couple of Apaches, though, and found these to be tight quarters. Dennis D.
