Philco 38-7CS Restoration
#2

Also, I had to double check. When I compared my radio to some of the pictures online of the under side of similar chassis, I noticed a cap that was missing from mine. I didn't pick it up on the schematic or part number list since I was recapping what was there.  Cap #30 is missing. It looks like it was once there at one time, but its definitely gone now. There looks like there were some small repairs to the radio prior to recapping, but nothing major. This chassis seems to be Rev. 2. I didn't see any note for the removal of this cap. 

What would this do to the radio since its gone?
