I just acquired a "Philco / Ford M3850T" and I am looking for a schematic.  I've tried PhilcoRadio.com and any other sources I could think of but keep coming up empty.  Sams Photofact has something but I think it's wrong.

Hi and welcome,

I took a look around but didn't see much either. Seems it circa 1966 but not listing for that particular model. Bare in mind that just about all the set we discuss are from 1928-1960 and most vacuum tube. Sam's might be only source for info.
Good luck!

figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Thank you so much for the reply, Terry. I sincerely appreciate your time, and I'll keep digging. It may be that an old fashioned visit to my local library is in order!
