All, I'm working on a Philco that has a flex shaft potentiometer.  Written in blue ink on the side of the pot is "4248 PHILCO 885072".  I measure this pot at 1.25M but according to the schematic it should be a 350K.  Can anyone decipher these numbers?  I've got another thread on this radio here http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread.php?tid=14172 and I posted on the antiqueradios forum as well http://antiqueradios.com/forums/viewtopi...6&t=297064.   I think I'm going to need a custom built pot and I need to make sure I've got the value correct.
Thanks,
Keith         [url=http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread.php?tid=14172][/url]

Thanks Morzh. So it appears I did wire it incorrectly and I have to switch the wires between pins 2 and 4.bobclausen — 09:24 AM
