The PHILCO Phorum

OK, it is speaking nw too. Good, two radios today.

Have to wait or that capacitor as the peak volts across that on I have there now exceed the 100V rating.

It is a TRF, so not a whole lot of alignment if any.

Tried alignment...not much can be done, just tuning gang padders. Given the dial precision don't even matter much.
Well, it tunes in and speaks.

Oh and the caps came...so At 115V it s now exactly 300mA current through filaments.

YAY!

Fantastic!

Have you been cut open yet?

UMMMMMM yeah,

Isn't it nice to have family take pics when you are on morphine

Enjoy. When is it again you can legally take one of those.

Well, glad to see you are still above the surface and have all your limbs with you.
Check carefully all the paces...them docs, sometimes they snip things without telling you

You even got a little side boob show

I will try not to lose my drive over that

kirk
glad to see you ok
take it easy for awhile

I can see in this photo he is dreaming of cabinets.

I know what you need, Kirk - you need to restore a Mae West Emerson when you out.
Keep picturing it (or Mae herself) in your head, this will give you strength to recover.
