Philco 40-150 Code 121 Antenna ?
#7

The P 38-9994 antenna does not match the schematic diagram. There is a lead connected to the top of 1a and 1b ( capacitor and resistor in parallel ) . That connection is not shown on the schematic. Also the capacitor 1C is fixed on the schematic and is variable on the P 38-9994 antenna. I am having a time trying to figure out how to connect the antenna correctly. The bottom end of the 1a and 1b in parallel is connected to an antenna terminal on the back of the antenna.

There is another antenna terminal to the right of the radio on the apron of the chassis.

Thanks,
