Philco 60 restoration
#6

Well. Antenna transformer had two opens: antenna side the 0.7 ohm to GND and the secondary - the lower last 1 ohm section.
The wire was badly corroded so I guessed the number of the latter to be 6 turns and the former I was able to count as 24 turns. Tracing took some time.

Now I think the osc coil is also open.

Tomorrow.

Forgot: I rewound the xfmr and soldered it in. I think my wire's thinner as it gave more resistance than it is in the sch, but then it doesn't matter.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the radio was removed before bidding was over so I didn't get a chance to bid.dconant — 04:10 PM
