I'm still in a quandary with this chassis. We ordered and received a 44 chassis, in hopes of doing some organ transplanting.
The antenna transformer coil has been replaced. The replacement from the 44 was an exact replacement (Part #2 in the Schematic) and checks out.
It turns out the 1st IF coil has been replaced with a non-Philco part.
I jumpered in the 1st IF from the 44 chassis. The part numbers are not the same.
Radio is still deaf as a post.
A schematic with coil values would be helpful, so I know what to look for.
I'm guessing this chassis was a victim of a lightning strike, since there's a char mark on the chassis near the wave trap, the toasted Antenna Transformer, and now the discovery of the replacement 1st IF.
Any further suggestions? Or Ideas where to look?
