Very nice Phico G1824. could use help?
#5

...actually...

I'll try to help. Sorry, busy with work, don't post a lot these days.

I can't answer your question #1 other than suggesting watching the auction site for something suitable...I see Philco speakers on there frequently, pulled from old Philco hi-fi/stereo consoles.

As for question #2, have you looked to see if Sams Photofacts covers this model?

https://samswebsite.com/

...nevermind...I just looked and G1824 isn't listed in their list of schematics.

As others have said, this is much newer than the average old radio being collected by people. And since it is not a high end model like a Fisher, HH Scott, Sherwood, Marantz, Dynaco, etc., there is not much interest in the Philco stereo/hi-fi equipment, thus little info out there.

Someone probably has an original service manual. I'll look tonight if I don't forget. I have some Philco service literature through the early 1960s, but by no means is it a complete set.
