Nathan got me interest in the 45 and took a look at the diagram. It's kinda interesting. No rf amp but dual if amps. Have only seen that on the higher end Philcos like the 16 and up. Might be a bit quieter +1. Tone compensation network (loudness network). A bit of low frequency boost @ low volume levels +1. May not matter too much on the table top sets as the spkr is somewhat small. Treble cut switch. High inductance choke feeding the hv to the mixer oscillator screen grid.
At 1st glance I thought it was going to be a pretty pedestrian set similar to 60 or 66 but should be a better performer. Have keep my eyes open @ Ktown to see if I can find a reasonable there. Shipping is brutal.

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!

Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM |
