I have just restored a Philco chassis 319 ( Made in Canada version of 19/89 ) and am about to do an alignment on it.

I am confused since the I.F. frequency is indicated as 260KHz or 460KHz depending on what document you are using…

Can anyone provide a definitive answer on the I.F. frequency of the 319 chassis which was used in the model 19 series in Canada? I am going to guess 460KHz for now…it would be obvious I assume once I start the procedure…

Nope, the proper IF frequency for model 319 is the same as the USA model 19 - 260 kc.

(I checked the RCC data to be sure.)

Thanks for the clarification Ron.  By the way this chassis works quite well even without an alignment...even the shadow meter still functions!  What I have also noticed is that the sound quality with the lowboy/console 10 inch speaker is quite good and there is basically no sign of 60/120HZ hum...very nice radio to listen to.

Thanks.
