1933 60L Restoration
#19

>The sch shows the cap of 0.18uF which is physically a bakelite with the two caps, two of the ends connected to the GND screw

Just to clear up perhaps a little confusion I'm not sure why but Philco back in the late '20s used .09mfd caps and continued to use them in to the '30s. It's a non standard value. That's how your model 60 has a .18mfd it's two .09's in parallel. Perfectly fine to use a couple of .1mfd cap to replace the .18mfd.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!
