Philco 37-10 magnetic tuning problems
#1

I recently dug into my first Philco - a 37-10 with automatic / magnetic tuning - and set out to restore it.

It worked fairly well well when I got it then sat in a closet for a few years.  This was my first good luck under the chassis and I was surprised to see so little work had been done to it.  Just a few new electrolytics and paper caps. I later found that the volume and tone controls had been replaced too.
