Hello: Thanks for answering my question about tube placement for my Philco 20. I'm also restoring a model 66 - the band switch was frozen when I got the radio - to make a long story short, I've corrected that, but in the meantime all 6 of the metal contacts on the band switch have fallen off. The band switch itself is aok, as are the contacts. My question is - how do I get all 6 contacts back on the the phenolic disc of the switch?
Thanks for your help. Phil
