A silent 1928 Philco 511
#4

Terry,
Many thanks for your suggestion. I did try that at #24, but no luck. Kept troubleshooting--ultimately found an open choke #36( 1 0f 2) in the power supply. Tested by bypassing with 2--1K resistors,in parallel=500 ohms-across the open---worked! Finally have HV (B+).  Finally able to listen. Speaker was missing,but substituted with a high impedance Crosley speaker. That "LOC" terminal was connected to the antenna input--acts as an antenna.
Radio now works!
