#22 Bringing the Mars SW 10 SWR meter back to life


In this video I bring an old Mars SW-10 SWR meter back to life.

This meter is covered in nicotine and has broken switches and a sticky meter.

I decide not to do a cosmetic restore as I want the meter to retain it's nostalgic appearance.

This will look good with rest of my old radios.

I see that your little ant friend had to make it into the video.

I see that your little ant friend had to make it into the video.

Yes, that is my pet ant. His name is Atom.
He did not want to help me at all cleaning the meter up today. I think he was ticked off since I did not bring his daily sugar cube.
