Philco 86 restoration
#6

Took out the coil that goes to the Det tube. Sure'nuff, the small winding that is over the celluloid insulatir is bare dull coper with green spots and broken in two places.

The wire from the tuning cap that goes to the cap and then to the det grid is fully stripped of insulation and broken close to the caps' lug, with large section of the wire missing and the stubs being needle-sharp. Not sure what caused it: the insulation was likely consumed by a mouse but the solid wire?

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
