Your message was just great. I just started working, restoring a Model 90 Cathedral Philco. My Dad bought this new in the last century. My intention is to bring the radio back, the best that I can. I too have the one 47 output tube. I am at the point of removing the tuning capacitor for cleaning. I am anxious on how far to go? Right now, I’m dubious about the warnings that the radio might not work again if you change a wire or reroute it etc.. I’m now waiting for Philco to put a recap kit together for me.
Best regards,
TUBEJOCKEY
