Philco 19 on/off switch?
#6

Great news. The rest is just digging out the Bakelite boxes and tracing the schematic. I've seen a couple of things I want to check out...like a place where something like three dogbone resistors are soldered together suspended on nothing, but except for the electrolytic caps, it looks original.

The cabinet is another story, though. Some serious veneer splitting on the bottom of the front panel and a six inch wide section of veneer on the left side is gone, so I'm going to have to match in a new section there. Anyway, the fun starts soon.

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM

You would probably be replacing the OPT.RodB — 10:54 AM
