I'd be very interested to hear that a 704 was
still running somewhere!
Paul Pierce has a 709 in his collection, but his website makes no claim
that is running.
Last time I talked to him, no it was not running - but with something like
a 709, I do not blame him!
I think one could get a 709 up and running, but it would be a tedious,
frustrating process of going thru and weeding out the marginal
tubes. That, and hoping that the caps did not go bad, or the connectors
have flakey problems, or something else...
