[sebhc] Suggestions for restoration of poorly maintained equipment

[dwight elvey]

Hi Mark
If you got the CRT and yoke, just dust the yoke off and put it
someplace warm to get any moisture out of it.
Rusted piece can be cleaned with naval jelly but you'll need to
disassemble as it is bad stuff to have in contact with electronics.
