Philco 89 (123) (Update-Coil rewind)
#6

Hi guys,
Thanks Ron for that explanation. The 36 tube was original as far as I could see, but I suspect the Riders diagram was of the later model set with the 77 tube. No one has tried any mods on this as far as tube socket changes, and I really don't want to start changing things on this set.

I know about the model 60 and it's chages. I just did one, it was a Run 11 model. Had to do a little decyphering but I made out ok on that one Icon_smile Your resources on that model helped immensely. Worked great when I was done.

If the 89 works, I probably won't bother with the rewind of that coil. But I wll keep it in mind if there are problems. I will have a look at it though to see what it's all about.
Ron, is there a place to view the bulletin 146, or do I have enough info from your post to do the repairs?

Thanks a lot, and take care,
Gary.
