This changer is in the radio. I am not sure it is the original one. You could see how it is twist-wired to the cable.
Also the capacitor of 0.01uF is wired between the Chassis wire and the motor's screw instead of going there direct;y. The cap is Sprague and
not a Philco.
Does anyone know this changer and if this is the one that was used in this radio originally?
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
