Hi Everybody,

I just acquired a Philco 40-170 code 121 yesterday. It has 6 'push-buttons' that I assume are presets. When I press them the dial indicator doesn't move. But also, when I rotate the 'tuning' knob the indicator doesn't move either. Inspecting the dial cord it appears to be recent (definitely not the orig). Its tight, the spring is firm, and all seems to be in order. I'm wondering if maybe one of the knobs or buttons needs to be in a certain position in order to engage the manual tuning (as opposed to the preset buttons).

Also, I'd love to find a copy of the instruction manual, print ads, or anything else pertaining to this radio.

Any info that I could get from you folks would really make my day! If you can be of any help, please either post here or PM me. If you need to send a file, just let me know and I'll PM you my email address.

Thanks in advance!!!
