47-1230 Finally Complete
#21

Thanks for the input Warren!  I got excited after seeing what you did to your 47-1230 and sort of got ahead of myself.  lol  After stepping back a bit I see that it will probably be awhile before I'm ready to restore the cabinet, if I do decide to do it.  First I need to make the electronics work.  I'll be ordering caps tomorrow.  I do have a couple of electronics questions for you but I'll start a new thread in the Philco Electronic Restoration phorum.

I'm also working on a GE LC-628 that I'll be using as a guinea pig.  I want to make it work and want to make the cabinet look nice, but it doesn't mean as much to me as the 47-1230 so I'll be using it to learn on.  I've restored two cars but never a vintage radio  ;)
