Philco 41 280 Floor radio-new project.
#1
Photo 

Just picked this up locally. No power cord. When I tested the tubes I think I know why. 3 bad tubes, 2 shorted, and 1 barely good tube. I have bought a lot of recap kits form Hayseed Hamfest. They don't list Philcos, although they have made electrolytics for one of mine. See pics

Hello willits18,
First of all I wanted to say welcome to our little forum.
over all that set does not look in to bad of shape First thing I would do is get good schematic diagram of that set and myself I like to take a lot photos and notes along with marking wires and parts .

Sincerely Richard

Rough but restorable.
The rubber wiring seems to be in OK shape; the white wires often stay pliable and do not need to be replaced.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
