Philco 71B Code 125 with Shadow Meter Info
#2

Hi,
Probably the best way to start off is to post some pics of your chassis. Just to make sure we're on the same page with model and parts. It's been a little while since I've worked on a 70 or 71 I think the last one was a 370 which the dial is different from the B models. I'm kinda thinking that it doesn't use a cord but is friction drive w/a little pinch roller.

Don't think that the 70/71 used a shadow meter. If your set has one it may not be a 70 style chassis. The cabinet for a set w/a sm is going to be different as the escutcheon is larger.

Sam's isn't going to have any info for the 70 or so they only cover post war sets after 1946.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
