Philco 59S Help
#1

Hi, Folks. I'm back with another request for assistance. Recently, I purchased a 59s for $5 and did the recap, replaced the resistors, and rewound the coils for practice. When I fired it up, there was no sound. Before I take voltage readings (I have to get a battery for my multimeter), do any of you have suggestions or tips?

Here is a link to the schematic: http://www.nostalgiaair.org/pagesbymodel...013790.pdf

Thanks in advance.

Dave
