A Philco 38-690 Restoration
#6

Next up: the tuner chassis.

Yes, the dial scale is cracked.

Take a good look at the top view of the chassis. Somwehere along the line, someone had removed several of the tube shield bases so that metal and/or GT tubes could be used. This would present a bit of a challenge - especially for one tube socket which required a wire to run through the rivet which helped to hold the socket and shield base in place.

But first...I will tackle other issues on (and in) this tuner chassis.

Stay tuned...
