INFORMATION ON PHILCO 46-480
#4

Hi and welcome,

Here's the original service info from Philco. https://philcoradio.com/library/download...6-1947.pdf It may differ from the Sam's as they redraw and change the part numbers on the schematic. It makes it very hard to follow a long and answer questions. Please here on the Phorum use the Philco manual. Not all of us have access to the Sam's but we have all the of the Philco manuals here.

The dipole would look something like this: https://www.rfcafe.com/references/radio-...l-1947.htm

The PB stands for push buttons and when the band switch is in that position it allows all of the push buttons except the off/on switch to select pretuned stations. There is no pretuning on the sw or fm bands.

There are some station labels in the library but I think they are for the '40-'42 models. In saying that they only have stations that were on the air pre 1942 or so.

I took a quick look and didn't see a user manual for your set. The Phorum puts them in the library as friends and members scan and send them to us.

GL w/your project!

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
