Glad you solved the wire mystery. I remember that Philco has an adjustment procedure for the MT. Mine works. It makes the station come in worse, but at least is does something 
. I already replaced the 0.7uF and two 0.1uF.
My suspicious 0.1uF cap goes from the center terminal of the treble control then directly to ground, no resistor. I didn't disconnect it. I know everything is affected by everything else in the circuit, but didn't think it would in this case. I will check it disconnected before I condemn it.
I emailed Mark Oppat about a replacement treble control and a new dial but no response as yet. I hope everything is ok.
I picked up a 1935 Emerson tombstone model 36 last night. SOMEBODY STOP ME BEFORE I BUY AGAIN!!!
