42_327 code 122 wiring mess
#1

Hi All,
New member to the Phorum but I have been lurking for years!  Great information.  I have recently purchased my first Philco.  I opened it up turned it over and found a real mess.  The wiring is literally taped together in some places.  The caps are melted and most of the wire insulation is cracked or missing.  Going to be a real job.  I have included a pic so you can get an idea of what I am up against.  I am relatively new to the restoration game and will probably need lots of advice on this one. 

If possible, I was wondering if anyone has some high quality pics of physical wiring of a restored radio.  I have a good schematic but would like some sort of road map of the physical  wiring to help with placement.  I don't trust how things are wired now.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Steve

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
