VERY basic 41-315 questions
#1

        Hello,

To start with, I know absolutely nothing about radio restoration. I just picked up a great looking Philco 41-315 and am looking to do just a few simple things.

(1) Power cord needs replacing. Yes, it powers up and works...  but dangerously powered, brittle and exposed wires.   How do I remove the chassis? I've removed the 4 underside screws... but afraid to move forward w/o direction.

(2) The jewel is missing...  I've read the post on replacement. Is the jewel lighted from the internal glow of the radio?

(3) Missing 2 radio station call letters and plastic covers...  Replace while chassis is removed?

(3) Dial area is very dim, is there a way to brighten this up?


** I have 2 original sheets of station call letters... if someone can walk me through the simple repairs needed, I'd be happy to send the sheets to them **


Thank you for any assistance given,

Rick
