Philco 77 field coil rewinding
#11

Very good!
I cheated I don't know if you saw it but there was a "rebuilt G speaker" on epay. My model 87 has been vacationing out in the shed only to find that the field and opt are open. Grrrr!! So I bought it. Looked great, field rewound, new paper cone, and the opt has a new paint job. Checked it over with the ohm meter and looked good. Did a few repairs on the 87 chassis. Mostly the input cap in the p/s has shorted and tried to takeout the 80 but caught it in time before any serious damage. Speaker sounds awful! Cone off center and buzzing at certain frequencies. I'll probably put an original in it.

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!
