Model 70
#7

The colors are, body green, tip is brown and an orange dot. I see on another schematic, "16" is 13K. It used to load the plate of the OSC. Colors seem correct for a 51K. Maybe it was previously replaced. I will try a 13k and see if it affects the performance.
PS, When I bought this radio, someone had installed a smaller all American five radio chassis on top of the original chassis. The controls were inserted on the side of the cabinet. This indicates to me it has had previous repairs.
Bought it thinking I could use it to learn the 1930's Philco circuitry. I'm very impressed by the early circuitry of Philco and the amount of room under the chassis. I am considering removing the tuner to clean it thoroughly but a little hesitant to cause myself additional problems. Any suggestions?
