Replacing Philco 42-322 Radio power cord
#4

You have a good memory Paul.  That was the very first radio I worked with.  I don't think I was smart enough at the time to worry about which way it got wired up although you are right in that there is no direct "on purpose" connection of the power to the chassis.  These 1942 set do have a problem with rubber covered wires that have become brittle and need replacing.  A short to the chassis could be shocking  Icon_eek

How to replace the rubber wire is covered in Ron's tech tips.

The easiest way to see the various write-ups I did on my 42-322 is to go HERE and the 42-322 links are on the page.
