[Image: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0?ui=2&ik...5bc62c1&zw]I have been listening to this Stewart Warner this morning, a bit of an awkward looker but sounds great, my wife asked if it was FM it sounds so nice. It has a phase inversion circuit for the large speaker and I struggle to understand that concept at times but it sounds good. 6 tubes and Slug tuning, 1946 year of manufacture. It will be playing most of today. Paul B.

How many Bakelite  blocks does a Canadian Philco   model 37-361 have ?
 I might be doing a restoration on one
Thanks

Hi
I'm looking for a dial string diagram for a model 28L.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks,

It has been quite a while since I had a genuine antique radio project, but a new one is set to come this way soon. A friend of Mrs H wants me to take a look at a radio that belonged to her Grandma. It is a Zenith H725, AM/FM receiver Circa 1952, and looks quite interesting. This will be the first series heater string radio I've worked on, and also the first without a transformer, so I'll have to brush up on the safety equipment and procedures around here. 

I am expecting to get a first look at it some time this week, and will update here as things progress.

Hello can anyone help me out please ,I have a Philco model #20 , I want to change all caps and resistors except the long wire wound one, I have checked all the tabs on the long wire wound resistor and have found all seem fine except numbers 6 & 7 , they should be 975 ohms but check at zero ohms , for some reason there is a wire soldered across the 6 & 7 tabs , I am thinking some one did a repair on this set and did not have a 975 ohm resistor to put in here so they just soldered a pice of wire across the 6 & 7 tabs , can anyone tell me if maybe it came this way from the factory and is ok , or should I cut this wire and put in a 1k resistor and if so what watt should I use , I have attached the schematics and a photo of the wire wound resistor and also have attached a drawing of it with the readings I got , would be thankful for any help I won't change this until I am sure , all the very best have a great day Rick

PS I will send the schematic in another post had some problems                

Just picked this up locally. No power cord. When I tested the tubes I think I know why. 3 bad tubes, 2 shorted, and 1 barely good tube. I have bought a lot of recap kits form Hayseed Hamfest. They don't list Philcos, although they have made electrolytics for one of mine. See pics

I’m on a long weekend vacation with my wife in Fort Worth, Texas and saw this model 46-1209 at a record store in the Stockyards. I sought out the store owner and told him that it was exciting to stumble upon. He had no idea about it other than that it was dated 1946. I told him that it was a Philco model 46-1209, and was close to the model 46-480 that I’ve been working on. The only difference is that his has a turntable but no FM, whereas mine has FM but no turntable. He seemed excited to learn a bit about it. It has a placard saying not to touch it, but he let me fiddle around with it a bit.

Hi Folks,
Is anyone currently selling a good reproduction of the 38-890 grill cloth?

Thanks
Steve
