Philco 41-290-121 Chassis !!!!!! RON ?
#3

Hi Ron

Thank you for jumping in.
I agree my favorite Tube Data source also.

Schematic http://www.radiomuseum.org/r/philco_41_290.html


The Radio plays well no difference whether a 7A6 is used or a 7C6 is.
I have left the 7A6 in as that is what the chassis calls for.
If I leave NO tube in that Position, Radio Plays but reduced Volume.

Now I want to check the IF alignment

Instructions state
High side of sig gen to No 4 terminal loop panel      (WHERE IS THAT?)
I checked Bitman's, Riders, and Radio Museum  Nothing showing what No 4 Terminal loop panel is or where it is.

You are correct about the Rubber wire.
Owner does not want to spend $$$$$$ to replace it all Sooooo.

Radio Plays well and I did replace any rubber falling apart. Had to rewire Lamp sockets as they were Rubber too.

I gave my Philco 41 Manual to Tom Forbes, that may have more info on this chassis.
Tom hard to contact.
