Well I could resist taking a quick look at the innards of this new set. Got it apart which is kinda tricky to find that the p/s had been repaired. So I figured what the heck I put the juice to it and found that it was working in a fashion but the pilot lamp wasn't. That was a pain to fix as the dial assembly has to come apart too. Same old Philco problem hard rubber in the socket. Some shrink tube latter and about an hour to put it back together it's up and playing.
It needs all the paper caps, speaker/recone, rubber chassis mounts, a good cln & lub, and the cabinet needs refinishing. other than that it's like new!!!
I did take note that the wiring is cloth NOT rubber on this one!
