Philco 37-665B Restoration
#7

So far not good. The radio's escutcheon is missing the spring clips that fasten the shadowmeter. There is no place on the chassis to electrically connect the meter. There should be a wire harness coming from the IF section. Trying to find parts for this "bird" is an exercise! We could pay lots of money for an escutcheon only to use the clips ($55), glue the meter to the escutcheon or use twist-tie wire (the last two are really pushing the limits). Finding the right place to connect the meter will be interesting. At least we have a shadowmeter now. Last question is: why no sign of the shadowmeter, harness or spring clip?
