Along with what John posted a lot of the early Philco (28-34 or so) sets have bad ant and osc coils. Not the end of the world but something else to fix.Other things I've seen are open field coils and output transformers. The 90 does use a curved tube shield as do the 20,21,70 and 71. All look similar but won't fit the 90. Are you the old PhilcoPhan? I see we have something in common.

Terry, thanks. I had to re- wind an OSC coil on an 84B. Hope I don't have to do that on this, but if I do, having that experience will help, I'm sure. I'll check everything when I dive into it. Right now I'm just gathering info and figuring out what I may need.
And, No, I'm not the old PhilcoPhan. I'm sure I'm not the 1st to use that nickname, and won't be the last.....
Jeff,
I just started on a Philco 90, and I checked continuity on all the coils last night. I lucked out, and all coils are good. It is a single 47 output like yours.
You may luck out with the coils too.
