my 37-630 restoration
#5

Work continues on my 37-630. I have finished replacing what were the paper condensers before someone else worked on it. I have removed and rebuilt the electrolytic condensers, removed the electrolytic condensers installed by the mischief maker, and re-installed the rebuilt originals, and wired them into the circuit. I also replaced most of the resistors with new ones of the same resistance and higher wattage rating, although none of the originals were out of tolerance. I am currently waiting for my new dial and some #44 lamp bulbs for the dial and shadow meter, then I will re-connect the speaker, and see what happens. Hopefully, at that point, all I will have to do is an alignment, then re-install the speaker and chassis in the case.

I tried accessing the site through our library and got the same response. It's reported to our tech gurus. GaryGarySP — 11:50 AM

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
