My Philco 16B
#1

Hi
Well I just finished stuffing the caps (black blocks) on my 16B Icon_smile , align the I. F. and the RF (boy that RF is hard to align correctly Icon_confused . The radio is a good performer but Icon_rolleyes The the tone control does not have any effect except all the way clockwise which cuts the Highs. I went over this thing many many times and I know Icon_surprised it is wired correctly the only diff is for a .9 mf I used a .82. Is this normal for the 16B??. My radio had the following .9 , two .25's and a .003 and a four poss shorting switch in the tome control circuit. What to do??
The radio has great audio but the first three position's have no effect.
