Since the drift of the thread has gotten on to the pro's and con's of the D104 I have another question. I have used the D104 in the unamplified style for about 40 years and was always been satisfied with its performance on SSB with my voice driving it. I have two of the old beasts here with the "G" stands in very good mechanical condition. The only problem is that one is totally dead and the other sounds like a drowning person calling for help from the bottom of a rain barrel. As Rush would say they have both assumed rig temperature. Since Astatic is no longer I would like to draw from the groups experience in rebuilding these. I am aware of Heils rebuild kit but know nothing of how it works out. Also are there other suppliers of replacement parts?
