Philco Model 16B Cathedral
#39

Thanks Nathan. I have one on its way.

I installed the new tuning dial, shadow meter and the rest of the tuning mechanism, last night. Pretty much as expected; the shadow meter leaves a little to be desired. It will do, until I can find another one. I still need to play with the lamp alignment behind the tuning dial. My lamp leads are too short, and it is pulling the lamp in the BC position. A minor detail, I think.

Now to the RF/IF alignment, and need to do some speaker repairs. It rattles a little. Now I see some tears in the rolled suspension that I had not spotted before. Even with the occasional rattle it sounds pretty good.
