Does anyone know of someone around the greater Houston area that works on 
SB-220’s.  I was able to pick one up for a pretty good price and supposedly is 
working but needs tubes (looking to order some in the next week or two). Looks 
like there are quite a few upgrades already done - grids ground, soft start, 
soft key, parasitic suppressor, caps replaced in 2018, stand by switch added.  
Once I get the tubes would like someone to go through it and make sure it all 
looks good.  It does need some work - tuning capacitor shaft bent, one band 
does not work - seller didn’t know which one.   It’s wired for 240 which I am 
going to have to run, so that’s another reason I was looking for someone as I 
can’t plug it in right now.  (Yeah I know I could make a cord and plug it into 
the dryer outlet, but if I’m going to do all that I might as well run it). 
Looks like the soft start is 240 only and would have to be bypassed to run 120. 
 Thanks in advance for any recommendations.  

- Chad
