47-1227 - Radio will not tune in any stations.
#26

+1
Kutztown is coming up in a few months (Sept) maybe something could turn up there. Meanwhile put out some feelers there's ARF and several Facebook radio groups. When looking for a certain part do mention the model # from which the part goes to and what it does some folk just put a part# and will get ignored by most. You might have a look at a transformer from a 48-482. Frequencies are the same but done know about the physical layout. Unfortunately many of the early post war FM sets use an odd (non standard) IF frequencies. Philco used 9.1mc later on the everybody (Philco too) was using 10.7mc which was the standard for many yrs.
Patience is a virtue in this instances.

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!
