Philco 70 Cathedral
#13

Hi All, putting the dial back on my 70 and when the tuning gang is completely meshed, I can set the dial to read 55 but when I fully open it, I’m about a half inch beyond the 150 or high end of the dial. Can’t find anything in the Philco Library or Nostalgia Air as far as setting the dial before doing an alignment. Anyone have that info or should I just set my dial to split the difference between the low and high end of the dial. In other words, set it about a 1/4” below the 55 and that will give me a 1/4” above the 150 on the high end! Thanks.

Ron
