After some trial and error, finally got my 802A working again.

The PA amplifier was oscillating, so it would run 50 watts into a  
dummy load, but on a narrower band load, such as an antenna, the VSWR  
circuit would trip it off.  Unfortunately, we needed it to work into  
an antenna, not a load, dummy.  After some trial and error changing of  
caps got it back.

Now I need to find some shock mounts.  Robbed the ones off this box  
for another 802A being used as a translator that had developed  
terminal rubber rot.

Vaguely remember finding that the shock mounts from a QRK turntable  
would work...but haven't seen one of those for while.  Anyone have any  
ideas?

I suppose I could use the tie wrap and foam rubber trick...
