Hello Everyone:
I'm a newbie with reasonable electro/mechanical skills. I have a Philco Transitone Model PT-30 and wish to get it back into shape. I have done a bit of research and know enough that it should be re-capped before plugging it in. I have the schematic and think I can manage this. After visual inspection, it also needs a new power cord. Is there anything else in particular that I should know about this model?
Also, the dial cover and dial needle/pointer broke during shipment. I have a fix on how to make a new dial cover, but does anyone know where I can get a replacement pointer? And how do they come off?
Much obliged!
