38-690 volume control
#4

(12-07-2015, 10:13 PM)Chuck Schwark Wrote:  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
