Old Radio Needs A Tune-Up

[MiCon]

Way back in 1969 I bought a TRIO 9R-59D HF receiver while stationed in Japan. Used it for about 20 years, then it just sat around for the next 33 years. It was a good receiver, but it's a tube radio. It still works, and I'd like to start using it again, but it needs a serious tune-up. Probably needs new tubes, alignment, and a good cleaning on all knobs.

Does anyone know of anyplace or person that still services the old tube radios?

Something local would be great, I live in central AZ, but I might be willing to drop it off in southern CA, or ship it somewhere. It's a big radio, but worth it to me to get it back in shape.

Refurbishing a Trio 9R-59D communications receiver - March 1994 - Silicon Chip Online

One of my more interesting jobs recently has been the refurbishment of an old valve Trio communications receiver which I obtained for just $100. Despite its age, the old Trio performs quite well. by John Hill
