Hello all,

I am new to this forum and will be using it as a great info source for my Philco Model 77
Restoration project.

I am just starting and have restored the cabinet, now on to the chassis.

The radio I have looks fairly intact, it is missing the 2 -45 tubes, and looks like the two of 3-24s have been replaced with 58's.

I will be looking to replace all the capacitors and checking/adding tubes prior to power up!

Q. I have the schematics, but need the component layout to id the parts.

Does anyone have or know where I can get a copy of the component layout?I have checked most internet sources with no luck.

Thanks
Tony

Hi

I suggest you purchase the complete set of service information from Chuck at the Philco Repair Bench website. This will include everything you need, and the price is quite reasonable.

Just out of curiosity which cabinet does it have?

Now I think I've got!
