Thank you Ron!
Your advise is always held as paramount! Do you know who or where I can find the "in spec" replacement rubber spacers /grommets that we will need to remount the variable cap after it is pulled and cleaned so that it has attain the proper height to properly display in the tuning dial in the escutcheon?
The removal and cleaning is something I can do but the proper remounting, reconnecting and alignment may be a function of those with better equipment and far greater expertise than I to ensure success. I really love my old Philco receivers, my 1942-400X, and especially this old 1936 Philco model 60B receiver, and I'm hoping for nothing less than factory prime restoration!
I will copy my friend Kevin to see what he says at Antique Radio Restoration in Putnam Connecticut to increase chances for success!
Kind Regards, KB1PKS (Bill)
