Hi!
I've recently joined the Phorum and I thought I should say a small bonjour!
This looks like a great forum. I'm sure it will be helpful many times!
I'm a young french canadian collector and I only own one Philco in my 25 sets collection. It is the model 60B (early version). I hope to get into the restoration during spring. We'll see!
Here's my website, if you're interested. I own a few canadian sets (some are rare as hen's teeth) and american radios.

Have a nice day!

If you need any help with some of your Canadian made sets I have worked on a fair number of Canadian makes and models over the years, especially C.G.E, RCA, Electrohome, and Rogers.

Ciao e benvenuto, Fegravel. 
I don't know any French, ma parlo un po Italiano.
It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.

If we can help you, let us know what model you are working on, ( link or scematic to,) an what you wnt to know. Get used to advice to change all the elecrolytic and paper capictors and all (or out of range) or all just anyway carbon resistors before firing the set up again.
Best of luck.
