Someone could make a pretty penny selling rewound Philco coils or selling a conversion kit for a 6A7 Pentagrid Convertor for the 89 and similar units with an autodyne 1st Detector.

I only had one other Autodyne, an 80 Jr. I was able to repair the open in the tickler without a complete rewind. I dunno why the 89 gives me so many fits.

Taking another stab the next time it rains on LI. It has been very dry here to the point where the Water District imposed odd - even watering.
