Philco 89 / 19 transformer (and other bits.)
#3

G'day Terry, thanks for the info.

The radio is certainly busy underneath, although there was some room freed up during the recapping process. The block components were a novel idea, no real issue once you have the data sheet downloaded from the Philco site. I would hate to think about repairing this radio without the cross reference / component value lists.
I checked the Osc windings and they appear to be continuos, although this oftens changes once power is applied. It appears as though there were a few factory revisions along the way but these should be easy to spot as I work my way through the innards.

I have selected a suitable power tranny, four bolts and a bit of wiring and I hope the old girl will sing again.

I'll keep you updated on progress.

Cheers

Kev.

Is there a reference somewhere where you can punch in Philco part numbers and see what models those parts were used in?Jim Dutridge — 10:17 AM
