Do you know the cross-over parts numbers for the Philco 38-690 volume control, Philco part number 33-5240? They one on my 38-690 has some bad spots, and it has been cleaned, so it would be nice to find a replacement.

Hi,
I'll search all the 37/38 Philco dealer parts catalogs for that part
when I get home from work this evening. Prob. in there.

Looking for the values of the dual-pot volume control on the Model 38-690.
All Philco service bulletins and 1937-40 Philco parts catalogs do not show the resistances
of the two sections. Only the Philco part number: 33-5240.
Seems Philco never published parts values in their 38-690 service bulletin.
Any help appreciated,
Chuck

Hi Chuck,
While the parts list does not show the values, they are printed on the schematic as part #75 at 500K and part #76 at 100K.
BTW, keep up the good work. I have your data package for my 38-690 code 125 and it has been invaluable.
Thanks again!
Ed

Ah, ok. My Philco original schematics do NOT show any parts values. ??
Could be a very early edition maybe. Will have to research.....
Thanks,
Chuck

Hi again,
While the parts list and schematic I have does not show the values, they were provided by
another member here on the Phorum.
Part #75 is 500K and part #76 is 100K, for the dual pot.

Hi Chuck,
I took the information from the schematic you sent me as part of my packet. It is marked "38-690 Code 125 Figure 1". On the back side of this page is the alignment page and the chassis pictorial page.
Best regards,
Ed

Hi Guys,
Did you ever get a good cross over part no. for the volume control? My 690 seems to be bad at the low vol section. I'd like to replace it if I can find a suitable part.

have you tried to ask Mark Oppat?
