Check and see if the oscillator section is working. Get a second radio and place beside the Philco. Set its dial to some random frequency like 1200 and then tune Phil around 700-800. You should hear the oscillator strong in the second radio. To be exact you should find the osc signal with Phil tuned about 450-460 below radio number two.
No carrier heard, or if its way off from that ~460 kc difference, or if its fine, will be a big clue for further guesses.
