The secondary of the third IF transformer was open! Fortunately, I had a NOS Philco 45-6365 Universal IF Transformer in stock, so installed it. It now works properly.

Detail of the new IF transformer. Since the new transformer has internal trimmers, I removed the original trimmer for the 3rd IF primary.

The new transformer atop the chassis. This is probably exactly the repair which would have been made if somebody had taken this radio to a Philco repair shop a few decades ago.

The old IF transformer. Both wires to the secondary looked good, and I did not see any external signs of distress, although a spider had lived there.
