Philco 37-640
#6

Actually, True, I have a 37-630 chassis I will be stripping for some parts, I need the electrolytic condensers from it since whoever worked on mine many years ago simply removed them and stuck tubular electrolytics under the chassis, making it even more crowded than it originally was, and that was PLENTY. This means I also have a complete set of extra coils, antenna, RF, and oscillator, since it uses the same coils as the 37-640. They are, for Antenna, BC = 32-2108, PB = 32-2119, and SW = 32-2109; for RF, BC = 32-2105, PB = 32-2106, and SW = 32-2126; for Osc, BC = 32-2120, PB = 32-2121, and SW = 32-2110. It also seems to use the exact same dial and dial masking parts; and, the more I look at it, I begin to believe that the whole tuning sub assembly is actually the same. This is very good news as the parts chassis is in much better condition, and so the coils will probably be good in case I need to replace the ones in the 37-640. Upon further examination and study, if they ARE the same, I will use the tuning sub assembly from the parts chassis, and not the one that is in the 37-640 presently.
