An Introduction and a Philco 90 issue.
#23

Thank you Bob and Morzh. Bob, I ordered the resistors according to the original parts list but I'll go back and double check. The electrolytic that vented is connected between that first tab on the resistor and, when you look at the 80 socket from the bottom with the radio in the position I've been referencing, it's connected to the upper right tube socket tab. Is that correct?

Morzh...I certainly qualify as a novice and I'm trying to learn! The radio was working fine for a while and I might have misrepresented it as virginal when I got it because someone put in a 1/8th inch external jack to plug in an aux input at some point. My trouble started when I began to replace the darn resistors!
