Tonight I finished up the under chassis work except for the electrolytic condensers. I replaced one bakelite block with a 3 position terminal strip because the safety condensers I use would not have fit in the bakelite block. I sometimes wonder why Philco used the dang things anyway. Other manufacturers like RCA did not. I really think it was to make it harder for the home repair guy to fix the sets, and to encourage them to just take it to the Philco service guy if the problem was anything more than tubes.
