Philco 066 Tube Tester 1937-38 Tube Chart
#1

Group:

There does not appear to be much data out there on this model. The 1944 Philco test equipment manual shared by Dale Cook includes a schematic of it but no parts list and I don't know of an operations manual. Attached are copies of the Tube Chart that comes with the tester including an update from a 1938 Philco Serviceman. If anyone has a parts list and/or a operations manual I would love to see them! -- Andy

Update 12-13-23: I noticed I left off a page in the tube chart. So the revised attached pdf adds that. I also added all the info I could find in the Philco Servicemen newsletters I have. Model 066 does not seem to have been Philco's state-of-the-art for long - 066 was release in mid-1937 and by the summer of 1938 this model 033 was released and was being heavily promoted by Philco. A neat thing i did notice in model 066 - is uses a shadow meter for its line test!
