Philco 46-1226-125 schematic help...
#7

I got it all put together yesterday and it works even better than when I had done it "improperly!" :-) Surprise, surprise!

All caps are now replaced, as well as out-of spec resistors and tubes have been checked, etc.

Now my goal is to find some knobs and a phonograph cartridge, as the one that is in it does not seem especially good and does not consistently produce good sound. :-/ I don't know much about phonographs, but that's what the Internet is for, particularly this forum, where I appreciate everyone's help...

I may have enough knobs from past Philco "disasters" when I was mostly learning, but I need to find a way to fabricate those little metal inserts.

I will try to place a picture. It was not a bad find for $20 and $20 worth of parts!

Thanks again, all!
