Looks like the transformer has a 117v primary winding so line voltage in today's world not an issue.
The main power supply "can" cap should be available but expect it will cost more than you paid for the rig. Not sure if I may have one here used or new but should be easy to find a usable sub.
The looks of the mounting in the homebrew cabinet may be a challenge to get her out to work on it...but it may come out by removing the top and it may slide out.
The circuit grounding points should also be cleaned and retacked and she may come back to life on all bands. The tubes are common and should not set you back a bunch if they need replaced.
Enjoy
All the Best

[QUOTE="BJ radionut, post: 318222, member: 7026"] Looks like the transformer has a 117v primary winding so line voltage in today's world not an issue. The main power supply "can" cap should be available but expect it will cost more than you paid for the rig. Not sure if I may have one here used or new but should be easy to find a usable sub. The looks of the mounting in the homebrew cabinet may be a challenge to get her out to work on it...but it may come out by removing the top and it may slide out. The circuit grounding points should also be cleaned and retacked and she may come back to life on all bands. The tubes are common and should not set you back a bunch if they need replaced.
