Philco 41 280 Floor radio-new project. - willits18 - 03-15-2025

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

Hello willits18,
First of all I wanted to say welcome to our little forum.
over all that set does not look in to bad of shape First thing I would do is get good schematic diagram of that set and myself I like to take a lot photos and notes along with marking wires and parts .

Sincerely Richard

Rough but restorable.
The rubber wiring seems to be in OK shape; the white wires often stay pliable and do not need to be replaced.
