Several Issues with 630X
#11

Hello Forum-

This is an update for the 630 radio.  It is now aligned and working on all three bands.  I am measuring about -3 volts on the AVC for strong broadcast stations located 100 miles away in the daytime.

But, I have been following the thread above titled Philco Model 610 by Radio Hound.  I am experiencing the exact same voltage measurement issues as he is, such as Tube 80 pin 1 reads 389 volts.  and most plate voltages are about 50 volts higher than those listed in the table on the schematic.

Like I said the radio works and sounds good but I am at a loss for the cause of the higher voltages.  Could it be the 121vac line voltage at my bench?  Could it be my Radioshack DVM ?  So I will be watching the thread mentioned for more information.

Also, I found this chassis is a real pain to match up to either schematic or parts list.  Closest to page 7-97.
