Philco 118x floor model restoration
#3

well i guess its a good thing i drink, smoke, and eat red meat.

so all the paper caps will get replaced....orange/brown drop or are there preferred caps for each thing? i again must apologize, im still learning.

for instance, i did not understand any of the x/y safety cap bit there. i apparently have more reading to do. but i appreciate your quick response, ive already completely fallen in love with this radio. im going to fix the crap out of this thing.
