thank you everyone for helping on this. My puppy (lab) was ill on Saturday and we had a birthday party on Sunday thus my time on the computer has been limited. I did enjoy the link for Big Jon and Sparky, it brought back good memories. I see that Big Jon had a 1926 Essex and that his 1951 car was a lemon. I have been working on a 1928 Buick for the last 20 years and it will take another 20 to get it done :-). Though I know film photography stuff quite well this new digital stuff causes me mind fatigue - trying to learn a little about GIMP today and have never used Photoshop. Getting one of my Philco pictures resized in order to post makes me feel that I am in Kindergarten again; everything is a mystery. Hopefully I can get some capacitors ordered this week from the links that were kindly provided. I have an excellent book on Soldiering that I accidentally picked up from a used book store, " Solders and Soldering" by Manko. It is almost like a college textbook and I found out everything I was doing wrong for the last 40 years. I will re-post on my Philco restoration progress, each stage will be an adventure to be experienced.
