Hi all Just restored the radio , it plays great,... now on to the phono, Rider's says it is a magnetic pickup... can this one be rebuilt like how Syl does elsewhere on this site , or would it have to be sent in ?
I just picked up a Philco console stereo at a garage sale for $15
Last year, I refinished a dozen or more cabinets, learning how to use grain filler and producing some pretty decent work, if I say so myself.
If you are looking for the "quote" button to reply to someone...you won't find it in this Phorum. It was removed in May 2012 as the "quote" feature was being abused/over-used. It shall not return. somebody Wrote:bla blaaaa aaaaaaaaaaa When it is necessary and relevant to the discussion, I don't mind it. But repeated quotations make what could be a short reply into an unnecessarily long one, like this: Elmer Wrote:Bugs Wrote:Duck season!Enough! Enough! So how am I supposed to reply to a thread? Simple - just look at the graphic below. Either click the "Reply" button at the end of a thread, click the "New Reply" button near the end of a thread, or enter your reply in the "Quick Reply" box at the end of a thread. (See the thread "How to Post to the Phorum" in the "Phorum 101" section of the Phorum for details.) http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread.php?tid=4562 If you want to quote someone in a reply: Use the "quote" code as follows: Code: [quote]This person said this before me.[/quote] or Code: [quote="username"]This is what he said.[/quote] Notice how you place the word quote inside brackets to make a quotation. To end it, you type /quote (a forward slash, then the word quote); again, inside brackets. An easier way (H/T to Terry AKA Radioroslyn) - just preface what you want to quote with an arrow character (>). Example: --- > This is a great radio. I agree. --- Please use quotes sparingly, to make posts easier to read. Thank you.
Not only done but it looks and sounds great. The filter cap cans that were provided by another member kind of put the icing on the cake for me. I love originality and they give it that look.
I asked this question in another post but I guess it got overlooked or there's just no such animal available. I just bought a Rogers 10-12 console for $25.00. It does not have a power supply or a clock. The cabinet is in good shape ,but that power supply is going to be a challenge. I have always wanted one of these and at that price I could not turn it down[Image: http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm405...Medium.jpg][Image: http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm405...Medium.jpg][Image: http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm405...Medium.jpg]
My model 89 has the tone control that is referenced in the first drawing in the following link. If I did the link correctly. The .015ufd cap and the .01ufd cap are tied together inside the tone can and are soldered to the pad (which has a lug on it) and is not grounded. The wiper switches on and off of this pad. The other end of the .01ufd cap goes to the plate of the 42 output tube and the other end of the .015ufd cap is soldered to the frame of the tone control can which is also not grounded. |
